The error message you are encountering in Firefox about Chrome Registration failure indicates a problem with an add-on or extension that Firefox is trying to install. This error is a common issue when the browser is unable to handle the registration of an extension due to various reasons. Here are some steps you can take to resolve this issue: 1. Check for Existing Add-ons/Extensions: - Open Firefox and go to the menu (three horizontal lines in the top right corner). - Select "Add-ons" or press Ctrl+Shift+A. 2. Disable or Remove Problematic Add-ons: - Look for any extensions that are causing issues. - Disable or remove the suspicious extensions by clicking on the "Disable" or "Remove" button next to them. 3. Reset Firefox: - If the issue persists, you may need to reset Firefox to its default state. This will disable all add-ons and custom settings. - To reset Firefox, go to the menu > Help > Troubleshooting Information > Refresh Firefox. 4. Update Firefox: - Ensure you are using the latest version of Firefox. Updates often include bug fixes that could resolve such issues. 5. Check for Malware: - Scan your computer for malware or adware that could be interfering with browser extensions. 6. Contact the Extension Author: - If the issue continues after trying the above steps, consider reaching out to the author of the extension causing the problem for further assistance. Regarding your Compaq Presario C700 with an Intel Pentium Dual CPU T2390 @ 1.86 GHz and 2.0 GB of RAM, it meets the basic requirements for running Firefox. However, if you experience slowness or performance issues, upgrading your RAM to at least 4GB could improve the overall performance of your system, especially when running web browsers and multiple applications simultaneously.
