Have Windows XP Home, Compaq Presario.
Couldn’t open my 1.0.7 version of Firefox anymore. Spent a whole evening trying to save my bookmarks. Finally succeded thanks to Straight Dope old posts.
Deleted Firefox program as required, and everything that had the word Firefox in Documents and Settings. Also checked Ctrl+Alt+Delete >Processes. I didn’t delete Mozilla Thunderbird.
When downloading the version 1.5 version (French, Europe), I get the following error message at the start of the installation:
Une erreur s’est produite au cours de l’installation - Navigateur Firefox: -215 READ_ONLY.
(An error was found during installation - Firefox Web Browser: -215 READ_ONLY).
Can you get me out of that dead end ? Would appreciate your help.
(Easy on technical wording, please. I’m not really savvy).
