This behavior is also shown in safe-mode, Tried following things:- 1.Re-installing. 2.Removing profile to other position. Now error is like "Firefox is already running, but is not responding. To open a new window, you must first close the existing Firefox process, or restart your system." Restarted but same message is displayed again.
