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)
