I have updated to Mozilla Firefox 47.0.1 (x86 en-US), and when I click on the FF icon, it starts to open then crashes without any errors displayed. I uninstalled ff, restarted PC, re-installed ff (3 times) Firefox just crashes. I opened up the latest text file in Appdata/Mozilla/Roaming and has only this data: 1468707761. I have raised this report via Chrome.

My PC is WIN7 upgraded to WIN10

I have resolved my Firefox crashes:

1. Uninstall FF. 2. Go to : Users/Your-uid/AppData/Local/Mozilla/Firefox/Profiles 3. Create new folder OLD PROFILES. 4. Cut/Paste profiles from the Profiles folder ... to new folder OLD PROFILES (For Backup purposes). 5. Re-install FF - this will create new profile in the Profiles folder. 6. FF is now opening and OK.
