I can't get rid of this half-installed theme


Recommended Posts

Ok, I'm using Deer Park Alpha 2 atm ... and I can't seem to be able to get rid of this half-installed theme ...

<see attached pic>

It's because I'm on 56k ... and it couldn't continue downloading ... :blink:

Anyone know how to get rid of this?

Thanks in advance ~

i havent tried the deer park versions but im sure its like the previous versions..

the theme is in a hidden folder, either enable "view hidden files" to see

or just use the explorer address bar to navigate to the hidden folders

C:\Documents and Settings\USERNAME\Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\xxxxxxx.default\extensions

the extension folder has a bunch of folders with numbers like {9c40c66f-d4ed-11d9-946c-00e08161165f} etc, etc..

go thru each numbered folder and open the chrome folder that is inside

this will contain a .jar file, look for your theme name

some will be extensions and some will be themes

just delete the numbered folder that contains the theme files

i have 30+ numbered folders in here so it takes a little time to go thru each one

but you will find it

That's weird ... it's not there ...

There are no hidden folders/files in "q96akyns.default"

Is it possible to do a remove Deer Park perfectly (ie no trace of Mozilla) so I can do a clean reinstall?

the hidden files i was talking about are the "application data" files,

once your in there then things arent hidden

but inside your profile "q96akyns.default" should be several folders including one named "extensions"

inside that one are all the separate numbered folders for each extension/theme

this is how it is in normal Firefox.. as i said i dont use the "beta" versions, only the official releases

and try making a new profile before you re-install.. just delete it
