Try to start Firefox in Safe Mode to see if that works.
- Mac: hold down the Options key while starting Firefox
- Windows: hold down the Shift key while starting Firefox
Try to create a new profile to test if your current profile is causing the problem.

If the new profile works then you can transfer files from a previously used profile to the new profile, but be cautious not to copy corrupted files to avoid carrying over problems.

Hi please try a just the 59. or just 58. Disregard the minor updates and see if that works out. https://www.mozilla.org/firefox/all/ Full Version Installer Suggest delete all files/folders on your system for Mozilla Firefox except profile. Make a copy of profile though. then delete it. new profile works then you can transfer files from a previously used profile to the new profile, but be cautious not to copy corrupted files to avoid carrying over the problem. Never work with original files.
