Tried to install Firefox but an error message "Extraction failed - cannot open output file" always pops up, without a reason. Why's this happening?

Try to disable your anti-virus software temporarily to see if that makes it work.

You may need to delete the temp folder (%TEMP%) to remove the old files.
