Problem with Firefox.

I got 0.9 a few days ago. Didn't like it, so today I reinstalled 0.8 without uninstalling 0.9 first. Now, when I try to open Firefox, the program itself doesn't appear at all, but it does appear in the processes tab in Task Manager. What should I do?

Did you try uninstalling Firefox alltogether and reinstalling 0.8?

Yes. Still didn't work.

I had problems with Firefox also. I went back to using Firebird .7 and am so happy I don't see any reason to upgrade.
.7 has the most skins and the skin authors are slow to upgrade.
Maybe when Firefox 1.0 has been out for a year or so, then I might upgrade.

delete your profile information with the manager then try again

Chech your PMs, Arioch.

Ah screw it. What is a profile? I suck at computers, so I have no clue.

remember firefox is still a beta version, so there are gonna be problems.

try this
uninstall it
shut down all unnessesary programs (like AIM, virus scan and firewall)
a virus scan might mess with it, a fire wall will block it.
i never insalled firefox on windows, are you admin? (for NT, 2000 and XP)
make sure you dont have any spyware, this causes problems anyways.

Done all of that, and it still isn't working.

Basically, it's probably a botched Firefox user profile upgrade that's causing you to not be able to launch.

Uninstall .9, reinstall .8, use the profile manager link in the start menu folder, and delete all of your Firefox profiles.

Then uninstall .8, delete the Firefox directory from Program Files, then reinstall .9

That should do it.

It's working now. Lock please.

Heh, do it yourself.

Profiles were new to .8, I think? Are they necessary or what? .6/.7 are still the best versions (when combined with a third party download manager 9_9) and they didn't use profiles, so why implement them?
