Mozilla Firefox won't download for me. Can I fix this?

more options

I had a problem with Firefox, when it wouldn't download anything, like audio etc or games. So, i asked this, they said if you uninstall it then re-install it, it should be solved. But, now, I can't re-install Firefox. The error from Internet Explorer is - Error: System.ComponentModel.Win32Exception: The system cannot find the file specified.

Sorry if this should be asked somewhere else.

Hi,

Instead of clicking Open you can try to save the file and after the download is completed, right-click on it and Run as administrator.

That's a problem. I can't download anything at all, and the error : Error: System.ComponentModel.Win32Exception: The system cannot find the file specified. Means the download doesn't even start.

Disable all add-ons in Internet Explorer and try again to download.
