I have been unable to update or uninstall Firefox since April.
The helper.exe in the uninstall folder does nothing, and I cannot manually uninstall the program. Control panel is unresponsive. I'm running version 38 of Firefox and it won't let me update Adobe Flash either. Need this resolved however I'm supposed to do it.

Look for, and rename any Mozilla or Firefox folders by adding .old to them.
After rebooting the computer, run a registry scanner. Then run the installer. If all goes well, remove the OLD folders when you are done.
