The Firefox installer contains a compressed archive (7z file). Some companies block 7-zip, but this would be uncommon on personal computers.

You could try the MSI installer and see whether that one works any better:

https://archive.mozilla.org/pub/firefox/releases/126.0.1/win64/en-US/

That link is for U.S. English. If you prefer a different language/locale, click the .. link above the file names and then click into the desired folder.
