    Hello!

    Anyone had the same problem? What to do? What else to delete incase i haven't deleted everything the first time. The last text in the instalation window is in norwegian and says "can't install silverlight"

    I'm a c+,b- pc operator

    Hi, I think your best bet is to manually install silverlight. You can go to this thread that i already posted the instructions on how to install silverlight manually. Click Here

    Here's the instructions anyways:

    Step 1: Download the latest Silverlight SDK HERE from Microsoft.com (version 4 is the latest at the moment)

    Step 2: Download and open 7-zip portable from HERE. Portable allows you to use 7-zip without admin rights.

    Step 3: In 7-zip, highlight silverlight_sdk.exe then click file - open inside.

    Step 4: Then you will see the file "silverlight_sdk.cab". Highlight by clicking once then click file - open inside.

    Step 5: Extract all files from the list below (which are inside "silverlight_sdk.cab") to a new folder on your desktop.

    agcore.DLL
    coreclr.DLL
    microsoft.visualbasic.DLL
    mscorlib.DLL
    mscorrc.DLL
    npctrl.DLL
    NPCTRLUI.DLL
    slr.dll.managed_manifest
    system.core.DLL
    system.DLL
    system.net.DLL
    system.runtime.serialization.DLL
    system.servicemodel.DLL
    system.servicemodel.web.DLL
    system.windows.browser.DLL
    System.Windows.DLL
    system.xml.DLL

    Step 6: Goto start - run and type %appdata% then open Mozilla folder and if there is not a folder called plugins then create one inside Mozilla folder.

    Step 7: copy all those .dll files from where you extracted them and copy to the plugins folder inside Mozilla folder. Restart firefox and your done. Enjoy!
