Hi, How can we install Firefox when organization decided to block exe from running in the paths below. I've read the article here: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/976490 but when i'm trying to export the files from the exe itself- I'm getting an error from 7zip application. Does anyone have other suggestions? Thanks a lot
