I've tried d/l'ing the Firefox pnd several times through both my Pandora and my PC, but when I try to run it, I get a pop up window telling me:


Firefox is already running, but is not responding. To open a new window, you must first close the existing Firefox process, or restart your system.


I can't find a Firefox process running, and restarting the system doesn't help.


I'm running Superzaxxon 1.51 on a 1Ghz unit.


Any suggestions?
 
delete the hdonk_firefox appdata folder


if that doesnt work, check the .out file and post it here in a spoiler tag or pastebin fashion
 
EDIT: double post

Sometimes it can be slow to start, so much so that once or twice I've had the same error message (Firefox is already running) because I began to doubt that I'd clicked on the icon properly and tried to launch it again... leading to that very message popping up.


It's a long shot, but try launching it and waiting a little longer than you would, just to see... ;)


Also found it was prone to corruption on a cheap SD card ('Bytestor') I used, works much better on a Sandisk I switched to.
 
Deleting the app data folder did the trick. I kept looking for an appdata/Firefox... folder to delete. I didn't realize the folder name was /hdonk... so I kept blowing right past it in Midnight Commander.


Thanks for your help
