Firefox crashes after about 15 seconds
On May 1st, when I launched Firefox(afternoon some time on US East coast) it ran an update to 138.0.1. When it was done, it did not launch. So I clicked the icon on my desktop and it came up, but then closed out after about 15 seconds. When I reopened it, it asked to continue in troubleshooting mode or refresh. I tried both. No luck. I restarted and even uninstall and reinstalled the latest version as well as tried installing 137.
I have tried with virus/malware protection/firewall off. I have restarted. My page file is default. I tried renaming the firefox.exe to something else. I tried creating an new firefox profile(firefox.exe -p) but that crashes too.
I installed the latest version of Firefox Nightly and it stays open just fine. But when I launch the regular firefox, they both close.
I also installed the Firefox app from the Windows store and it behaves the same as the one from the mozilla website.

Interesting... Windows home or pro? What security software are you running besides MS Defender?

There is no folder for "Submitted". Attached image is what I have and the "Events" folder is empty. The crash_helper_log has nothing in it and the InstallTime files have just one line of text that are just 10 digits.
System info: If not DIY, make and model of computer. What graphics card and driver version?
