in der Systemsteuerung , Programme und features, wird angezeigt dass zwei Versionen von Firefox installiert sind: Mozilla Firefox 66.0.3 (x64 de) Mozilla Firefox 73.0.1 (x64 de) Wegen zahlreicher Probleme möchte ich beide Versionen deinstallieren und Firefox neu installieren. Aber die Version 66.0.3 lässt sich trotz Administratorrechten nicht deinstallieren , Fehlermeldung ist: Sie verfügen nicht über ausreichende Berechtigungen , um Mozilla Firefox 66.0.3 (x64 de) zu deinstallieren. Wenden Sie sich an den Systemadministrator. Abhilfe?

Let’s do a full clean re-install;

Note: Firefox comes in three or more folders on all computers. They are;

Maintenance: (Programs Folder) <Windows Only> Firefox itself: (Programs Folder) And two folders in the profile of each user on the computer for each Firefox profile for that user.

If you remove the Firefox folder, the user profiles would not be affected.


Download Firefox For All languages And Systems {web link}

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) Note: Check Both Folders

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 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Look for, and remove any Mozilla or Firefox program folders. Do not remove the Mozilla Thunderbird folder if there is one.

Do Not remove any profile folders.

After rebooting the computer, run a registry scanner if you have one. Then run the installer. +++++++++++++++++++++++++++ If there is a problem, start your Computer in safe mode and try again.

If there are multiple versions of Firefox in the Windows Control Panel present then it is possible that you only see orphaned (leftover) Firefox entries from older versions and that only the current release is actually installed. This can happen if the Firefox updater didn't remove the entry of the previous version, but merely added an entry for the new version. You need to check if those entries point to an older Firefox version and not to the current release. If you uninstall older versions that actually no longer are installed then you will likely uninstall the current Firefox version and you will have to reinstall the current Firefox release.
