Firefox thinks I use an old version of Firefox
After launching Firefox, every now an then it shows the following error message:
Using an older version of Firefox can corrupt bookmarks and browsing history already saved to an existing Firefox profile. To protect your information, create a new profile for this installation of Firefox
I use the newest version of Firefox and never downgraded / reinstalled Firefox or similar. If I create a new profile, after some time the issue reappears.

Start Firefox in Safe Mode {web link}
A small dialog should appear. Click Start In Safe Mode (not Refresh). Is the problem still there?
While still in Safe Mode,

Thanks for your reply. I could launch Firefox, but I had to create a new profile.

Num: Firefox
Versiun: 73.0
Your system seems to have two different versions of Firefox installed. Some long-time users have reported that their 64-bit Firefox upgrade installed under the 64-bit path instead of replacing the old version on the 32-bit path. Thus you can find both of these:
- C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe => newer
- C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe => older
Do you see that on yours?
Before removing or modifying anything, if you have Microsoft Office installed on your system, switch your Windows-level default browser to a different browser such as Internet Explorer. (This is necessary to avoid Office being confused when your default browser is removed.)

Thank you very much for your help and sorry for not replying until now. It turned out the administrator didn't deploy properly Firefox. Is there a step-by-step guide explaining the deployment with Microsoft Intune? That would be very helpful.
(The administrator blames Firefox because it doesn't use a proper MSI, but only a wrapper around the exe-file. He says my problem is related to the MSI-problem described in https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1505436 )

Hi psr3, I'm not familiar with Microsoft Intune. There is a mailing list for enterprise IT where they might find the answers or pose a new question:
https://mail.mozilla.org/listinfo/enterprise
There's also a separate forum here -- new question form:
