Do not ask questions here. Try the MozillaZine Forums instead.

FYI, in FF 1.0.3, when in safe mode, one can't disable extensions; one can only delete them - 'Disable' is itself disabled. (I find that, anyway; the Options button is greyed out (and 'Disable' is grey in the right-mouse menu), but Uninstall and Update are available.) My guess: if this is a new bug, a bug needs filing/fixing, if it's an old bug, the dox need changing.

Mozilla Suite (Windows) fails to start

I added this section because the problem is still being posted to the forums, for example, Mozilla 1.7.8 won't start (Posted: Wed 6th Jul 2005) and Mozilla won't open! (Posted: Tue 15th Mar 2005). Alice 16:27, 17 September 2005 (PDT)

Windows-specific problems - Windows Vista

On Vista, the Start -> "Run" box is not shown by default. You can use the "Start Search" box instead. See http://blogs.msdn.com/tims/archive/2006/09/18/windows-vista-secret-3-bringing-back-start-run.aspx and http://www.computerperformance.co.uk/vista/vista_run_command.htm

...Apparently Start -> Start search -> %appdata% does work. It's mentioned here as working on Vista. See also http://www.mozilla.org/support/firefox/profile#appdata Alice 18:44, 2 March 2007 (UTC)

"The program must close to allow a previous installation attempt to complete. Please restart." on Vista

This is bug 369221, Vista only, fixed on trunk and possibly will be fixed in 2.0.0.5. The same message was given in bug 283680, all Windows, fixed in 1.0.1. Since 1.0.1 is a long time ago, I'm dropping references to that fix.--Np 17:52, 18 May 2007 (UTC)

Faulty installation

The article mentions "JS_DHashTableOperate could not be located in the dynamic link library js3250.dll" is cased by a faulty install, could a bad install also cause this: http://forums.mozillazine.org/viewtopic.php?t=562786

"The procedure entry point ?ListenerDied@nsCategoryObserver@@QAEXXZ could not be located in the dyanmic link library xpcom_core.dll"

If so, perhaps we should rename that section to something less specific.--name already taken 06:50, 1 July 2007 (UTC)
