Unable to download Firefox ESR for Windows x86 version 102.9

When I attempt to download anything from https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/enterprise/#download, the download fails regardless of what browser I use. Firefox itself doesn't have much more info than that, but when I use Chrome to download it fails with "Insufficient Permissions".

I get the same message when attempting to download from https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all/#product-desktop-esr.

I am able to download the EXE version of the installer from https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/102.9.0/releasenotes/, but I specifically need the MSI version and am unable to extract one from the EXE.

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Try to download it from https://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/firefox/releases/102.9.0esr/

TyDraniu,

That didn't do the trick either, although it did lead me down an interesting path. My organization's Endpoint Security manager flagged a violation of a rule titled "Prevent Renaming of Unusual Executable from Web Browser" at the moment the download failed.

Looks like this is going to be something to take up with my Security team. Thanks for the help, I'll post again with results.
