I had Firefox as a browser. For some reason I got an error. "The profile is missing". Tried to install but it wont install because of the missing profile. I uninstalled the program but still was not able to reinstall.

hi Ratkins, please press windows-key + R and open: %appdata% a folder should open up - in there rename the folder labelled "Mozilla" to something like "Mozilla.old" and try to download/install/run firefox again.
