Mozilla updates download without a problem. When I am asked if Mozilla can make changes to my hard drive and I click yes, the updates are blocked and I am instructed to make sure that only one version of Firefox is installed. There is only one. I know that this may not be a Firefox problem but if you have had this problem, where do I go from here? Thank you.

Many protection programs have problems with the update stubs. Download Firefox For All languages And Systems {web link}

Separate Issue; Your System Details shows;

Installed Plug-ins

Shockwave Flash 23.0 r0 Shockwave Flash 12.0 r0
Having more than one version of a program may cause issues. You must remove the older programs. Then get the current full installer.

Flash: Grab the uninstaller from here: Uninstall Flash Player | Windows Uninstall Flash Player | Mac

Then reinstall the latest version.

Note: Windows users should download the active_x for Internet Explorer. and the plugin for Plugin-based browsers (like Firefox).

Note: Windows 8 and Windows 10 have built-in flash players and Adobe will cause a conflict. Install the plugin only. Not the active_x.

Flash Player Version: 23.0.0. 207 Flash Player (Linux) Version 11.2. 202.644
