If you have trouble with the upgrade, use this link; http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all/
If I download it via a link, it will still say that firefox is not updated. I need to know the Registry Key that I can change and set to auto-update
Would you know which key it would be?

Thanks Hemani
I called for more help.
The installation is blocked by the registry key.
Do you require further information? with regards to the key and setup?
hi, firefox doesn't use any registry keys for settings etc. if you have admin access to the machine, please manually delete the firefox installation folder, which is usually located under C:\program files (x86)\mozilla firefox\, and then reinstall firefox through the link that fred has provided. afterwards updates should no longer be locked...
