I can't play some of my games on FireFox and they don't come up Internet explorer because I have Firefox. I can't bring up my bill paying pages on internet explorer, I have to bring them up on Mozilla which doesn't have them and I don't see a tool bar to list favorites. Can I just uninstall FireFox and go back to my old internet

Hi, of course you can uninstall Firefox, but that should not be necessary since it is a different program from IE, and there should be no interaction between them.

To see the bookmarks bar on Firefox, please right click in the tab bar - but not on a tab, and tick/check Bookmarks Toolbar. If you wish, you can also do the same for Menu Bar, or to bring it up temporarily, just press the Alt key.

If you receive a satisfactory answer, please help others having a similar problem, by marking it as 'Solved.'

If you have set Firefox as the default browser then you can set IE as the default browser and disable the check in Firefox.

  • Tools > Options > Advanced > General : System Defaults
    "Always check to see if Firefox is the default browser on startup"
  • Control Panel > Internet Options > Programs:
    "Internet Explorer should check to see whether it is the default browser"
