My company blocks executables from running in the Temp folder. How can I install Firefox without it trying to run download.exe from a temp folder?

I found a workaround for the problem of not being able to run executables from the Temp folder. I happened upon the Full Firefox installer download page. I downloaded the full installer and used WinRar to extract the downloaded file to a folder then I could run setup.exe and Firefox installed successfully.

Please publish the link to the full Firefox installer on the same page where the stub installer is published.

Thank you.

I notice the page has changed a little from the last time I saw it, but you can reach the first link I posted by clicking "Systems & Languages".

From now on, download and save everything. When you tell the computer to open something online (program / text . . . .) the file is put in the temp folder, then opened. After you are done with that file, it normally gets removed during a system clean out.


You can also download to a thumb drive, and run it from there.
