Firefox Browser won't launch

[WartHog]

Can't get Firefox to launch. Tried holding down Shift and double-clicking the FF icon to start in Safe Mode but nothing happens. Found info on the Mozilla site saying to Delete the Firefox installation folder and do a clean reinstall of Firefox. I followed the instructions but only found one folder referenced Install and it was just text it seemed.

Anyone know what the major malfunction is and how I go about fixing it?

First off i am not a professional IT but i have built several system and mining rigs. Check under the system32 folder. If it's 64bit the check under the programsx86 folder as well. Delete all Mozilla folders then do a fresh install. Sometimes I also run ccleaner registery cleaner then install. In my worst case scenario I always partition my drives into 2 separate drives os on 1 programs on another and a fresh install of Windows will solve any issues. Good luck

Uninstall and then install Firefox Quantum. I was having the same problem and this fixed it.

It hasn't been mentioned, but when was the last reboot?

I have to ask, as many people at my work, with fancy degrees, and very fine hats don't try this.

I always try an uninstall, then a reinstall if applications not working after a reboot, then if not working uninstall, reboot, then install.
