Can you provide specifics as to what you mean by loop?
Summary: firefox installer make a loop if installed on ramdisk over h: → loop if installed on ramdisk over h:
By loop i mean the soft do same stuff, all the time and non stop. As i remember of previous update : Ask update -> download -> install upadte -> Error message -> Ask update -> install update -> Error message -> etc.
The specific error message is what is needed at this time.
I have the same problem. It just wont update itself. There is plenty of free space, I manually deleted update.xml + the second one .xml + updates DIR and it wont help! I use Nightly Win32 edition on a Ramdisk from DATARAM, it is assigned as R: ! This happens on WinXP SP3 (CZ), properly maintained and clear system on my work computer. I do not have this problem on Win7 x64 Prof.(ENG) with Nightly x64. :) I get this error: The Update could not be installed (patch apply failed) ------------------------------------------------------
