I just got a new computer with Windows 8.1. I downloaded the Firefox Setup file, and ran it multiple times, but nothing happens.

The regular download is a small "stub" file that has to connect back to the internet to get more installation files. This sometimes doesn't work or is blocked by local security software.

If your installer has the word "stub" in it, please try downloading the full installer from this page (scroll down to your preferred language):
