Issue

I have another kind of problem with Firefox

Description

I have just confirmed with McAffee that Scriptff.dll is not a McAffee file, but it is a Mozilla file The path under properties is: Program Files x86\ Mozilla Firefox\components\Scriptff.dll I have deleted a backup on an external drive, but this Scriptff.dll remains. Whenever I try to delete it, I am told I need permission to do this. I do have administrator rights. How can I delete this file.

I only became aware of the problem after deleting the backup

Troubleshooting information

Someone in this forum had replied earlier with the advice that it was a McAfee file, but the McAfee support person looked at the file and saw under properties that it was under Mozilla.
