Fire Fox opens then cloes (solved)

<< < (3/5) > >>

parkd1:
I is in C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox. It is the 64bit version. I am running the nightly build. Using it right now. I is mostly working. The things that do not work is cause I renamed the file to get it to run.

Shane:
I only use the 32bit version of it myself, I havent tried the 64 bit version yet.

I am not sure why renaming the exe would help it though, since the program should be able to run without it anyways lol

But so far so good?

parkd1:
Still not fixed but able to use it. I think the 64bit is only nightly right now. There must be something there that stops it when it sees firefox.exe but when renamed will run. It just will not run if a program calls for it to open a link cause it can not find the firefox.exe cause I renamed it. Other then that it seems to run just fine.

Boggin:
Where do you get the 64 bit Firefox version from - I run Win 7 x64 Home Premium and downloading FF has only ever given me the 32 bit version.

Perhaps there's compatibility issues - what does the default 32 bit version run like ?

Have you typed about:crashes into the URL search box to see if that provides any info ?

Edit - Have Googled for Firefox 64 bit but only info so far is that it's still a Beta version. http://www.mozilla64bit.com/

parkd1:
Yes the 64bit is still a nightly build. You can go here if you would like to try it.
