The problem is Firefox is not updated fully.
Try for clean install of newer version of Firefox.

Certain Firefox problems can be solved by performing a Clean reinstall. This means you remove Firefox and any leftover program files and then reinstall Firefox. Please follow these steps one by one:

1. Download the latest Desktop version of Firefox from http://www.mozilla.org and save the setup file to your computer.
2. After the download finishes, close all Firefox windows (click Exit from the Firefox or File menu) and confirm all upcoming messages.
3. Now, uninstall Firefox by following the steps mentioned in the Uninstall Firefox article.

IMPORTANT: On Windows, the uninstaller has the option to remove your personal data and settings. Make sure that you do not check this option; otherwise all of your bookmarks, passwords, extensions, user customizations and other Firefox user profile data will be removed from your computer.

After uninstalling Firefox on Windows, delete the "Mozilla Firefox" program folder, located by default in one of these locations:

• (On 32-bit Windows) C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox
• (On 64-bit Windows) C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox

1. Go to the Windows Start menu and click on "Computer".
2. In the Explorer window that opens, double click Local Disk (C:) to open the C:\ drive.
3. Find the "Program Files (x86)" folder or "Program Files" folder.
   • On 32-bit Windows, double-click the Program Files folder to open it.
   • On 64-bit Windows, you will see a "Program Files (x86)" folder AND a "Program Files" folder. Open the Program Files (x86) folder.
4. Look for a Mozilla Firefox folder. If you find one, right-click it and select Delete and confirm that you want to move the folder to the Recycle Bin.

Now, go ahead and reinstall Firefox:

1. Double-click the downloaded installation file and go through the steps of the installation wizard.
2. Once the wizard is finished, choose to directly open Firefox after clicking the Finish button.

Please report back to see if this helped you!

Jay, Thanks very much for the detailed reply. Take care.

Jay, I did the reinstall, but I won't know for about 24 hours if that took care of the problem. I will update you later.

Sure, ll help you to solve your problem..
Always welcome.... :)

Jay, I am sorry to have to report that I got the same pop-up today. I guess I will have to go back to the drawing board, as the expression goes. :-(

Can you attach a screenshot with this error message?

Use a compressed image type like PNG or JPG to save the screenshot.

Try to run Firefox once as Administrator (right-click: Run as Administrator).

Try to boot the computer in Windows Safe mode with network support (press F8 on the boot screen) as a test to see if that helps.

cor-el, Thanks for the suggestions. I will get around to trying them in the next day or two.
