Firefox crashes when starting up
Firefox today started crashing when starting up, also when holding shift (safe mode). Last thing I remember worked was downloading a file.
Crash id, for example bp-459f4fc7-ea03-4970-b280-413c62160703

What file did you download?
If you get a pop-up message asking to update Firefox or plugins or scanning for malware then such a message is likely a scam and you should never respond to such an alert to avoid getting infected with malware.
- Only update Firefox via "Help > About" or by downloading and installing Firefox from the Mozilla server and never via a pop-up or link on a web page.
- plugins should only be updated via the plugin itself or by visiting the home page of the plugin.

No it was not a malware download, I was downloading a backup from my server. I just mentioned it because it was a relatively large download with 600MB.
In any case, after restarting my computer, Firefox has resumed working again without problems.
