What are the permissions setup like on the FF folder? If you don't have write access under that account, it'll fail. Also, a corrupt profile might be a culprit. Try creating a new one and see if that works. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I looked at the Mozilla support forums and saw a number of people were having the same problem. I just went and downloaded the complete new version and the install went fine. There must just be an issue with version upgrade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You might have downloaded it at a bad time. Did you download it from the Firefox site? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
