Last view: 4303 days 		Ok, so Firefox was working up until 2 days ago. The error message is:

Error: Platform version '1.9.0.5' is not compatible with:

minVersion >= 1.9.0.6
maxVersion <= 1.9.0.6

The title of the message box is "XULRunner". I don't give a shit about Firefox, just help me convert cookies and temporary data (Like passwords and stuff) back to Internet Explorer format (And thus I can reverse that process to a new install of Firefox without worrying about removing that information).

This happened spontaneously and creates a problem for my dads business. Any input will help

...What? Firefox 3.0.6 is the newest, not 1.9.0.5...

I was hoping for some form of an explanation...

Are you, by any chance, on some Unixoid system? I remember this happening when I tried using Ubuntu's Firefox3 packages with Debian testing (which, at that time, didn't have them); the XULRunner package of Debian, though, misreported its own version, leading to said bug. I solved that by looking up some configuration file of XULRunner and manually editing the version it reports up...

edit: cf. that thread I posted about it

Last view: 4303 days 		No, I don't know what a Unixoid is. And it's my dad who doesn't want help because I'm unsure whether the temporary data that firefox uses, like passwords and bookmarks, will be lost upon re-install, or whether I will be able to transfer that data to a new installation folder if I install it to a different directory.

Unix-like. Like Linux, FreeBSD or Macintosh.

Either way, chances are good that my solution works on Windows as well; you'll just have to find the analogous configuration file for XULRunner.
