hello fuzzi1

 

perhaps there are folders left after the deinstallation...

 

have you delete manually all mozilla folders on your hd?

 

 

 

especially your profil-folder?

 

f.ex.: C:\Users\yournick\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\xxxxxxxx.default

suppl:  i dont know if cc use the registry for ff-plugins...

 

 

open your registry (regedit)

 

go to:

--> hkey_local_machine --> software --> mozilla plugins (there will you find the installed plugins and the path)

 

--> delete the entry "mozilla plugins"

 

 

note: i dont know if other mozilla apps use this entry for the work (thunderbird or what else)

Usually what I recommend is to:

1. Backup your Firefox Profile, just in case you change your mind and wish to use it again you don't have to start over from scratch.

2. Uninstall Firefox with an uninstaller such as Revo Uninstaller Free, it will find much more than just running the standard uninstallers included with programs.

and if none of the above advice works, what about reinstalling FF then remove the plugins, then uninstall it again.

Backup now & backup often.
