Running Firefox without Administrator Permissions

I am an enterprise administrator and want my users to be able to run Firefox on their Windows 7 desktops. I have installed using elevated permissions but when the users try to open the application without admin permissions (they are members of the Remote Desktop Users group) it just presents a dialog box that says "Firefox has stopped working." Any suggestions?

Check that you do not run Firefox as Administrator.

Right-click the Firefox desktop shortcut and choose "Properties".

Make sure that all items are deselected in the "Compatibility" tab of the Properties window.

  • Privilege Level: "Run this program as Administrator" should not be selected
  • "Run this program in compatibility mode for:" should not be selected

Also check the Properties of the firefox.exe program in the Firefox program folder (C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\).

start with read, go from there, its trial and error. I'm betting once they have the necessarily level of access to the local dir it will run fine.
