I can download the program but then I get an error going it can't find a certain Temp folder that it's downloaded to?
I get the error message that it can't find a temp folder- last bit of it is c:\users\my name\AppData\Local\Temp\7zS3D02.tmp\setup.exe The specified procedure could not be found
I just did a Windows 10 update and am currently using Edge (to my disappointment).

Is this from trying to run Firefox, or install it?
Let’s do a full clean re-install; http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all/ Download Firefox For All languages And Systems
Save the file. Then Close Firefox.
Using your file browser, open the Programs Folder on your computer.
Windows: C:\Program Files C:\Program Files (x86)
Mac: Open the "Applications" folder. https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/how-download-and-install-firefox-mac
Linux: Check your user manual. If you installed Firefox with the distro-based package manager, you should use the same way to uninstall it. See Install Firefox on Linux; https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/install-firefox-linux
If you downloaded and installed the binary package from the Firefox download page, simply remove the folder Firefox in your home directory. http://www.mozilla.org/firefox#desktop
===============
Do Not remove the profiles folder.
Look for, and rename any Mozilla or Firefox program folders by adding .old to them. Do not rename the Mozilla Thunderbird folder if there is one.
After rebooting the computer, run a registry scanner if you have one. Then run the installer. If all goes well, remove the OLD folders when you are done. +++++++++++++++++++++++++++ If there is a problem, start your Computer in safe mode and try again.

This is possibly an error message with the Firefox installer that tries to unpack the files in the setup file to a folder.
It is possible that security software (anti-virus, firewall) is causing the problem. Try to disable security software temporarily to see if that makes a difference.
Try this:
- download the Firefox installer and save the file to the desktop
*https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all/ - start the installation with a double-click on the desktop icon
