[SOLVED] Deleting Firefox

Ex-Para · 02-06-2008, 03:57 AM

I would like to delete Firefox 1.5 but it is not in control panel and there is no undelete that I can find. I don’t suppose deleting everything I can see that has to do with FF will be the correct way to do it so any suggestions will be appreciated.

Hi Ex-Para when you went to control panel did you look in Add remove programs? If its not there did you delete some of the files for Firefox in windows explorer if you have the only thing I can suggest is to download it again and reinstall it and then delete it the proper way from add remove programs.

Also make sure it is the same version 1.5

Thanks for the reply. FF was not in the add and remove and I have deleted nothing yet. I had actually thought of installing and uninstalling but I am unable to find a FF1.5 download, could you maybe point me in that direction.

That did it, problem solved. It took me a while to discover the exact version I had. I don’t realy know why it was not in the Add Remove in Control Panel.

Thanks for the help.

Now that you have it sorted try installing version 2.0.0.11 its very popular

I have installed the latest Opera as I now have it on all three of my computers that I use in connection with my business and I have them linked up with Team Viewer. I rather like Opera but that is just my choice.
