Hello, I decided to post here instead of seeking help/assistance on the Firefox reddit.
About a week or so ago I was using Firefox fine, no issue and out of the blue it just stops wanting to launch, or if it does launch it's stuck on a dark window, I was using the dark theme, that looks like it has a loading bar on the page tabs and in the url bar. It just hangs here indefinitely, the only way that I can close down Firefox is by opening up ProcessExplorer64 and killing it that way; it does not respond to task manager at all.
What I've done:
Uninstalled / Reinstalled firefox;
Updated my drivers;
Turned my computer on and off again;
Completely turned off, unplugged and power cycled my computer;
Made it a firewall exception;
Ensured my internet is connected and my computer has it (I use Discord and Chrome, in fact I have to post this in Chrome.)
What I do not have:
Anti-Virus;
My computer is clean, if I could I would eat off the data and suffer no infection from it.
Norton/Comodo/Avast; There is no anti-virus.
There is no adware, malware, trojans, viruses or spyware on my machine. Going to the same three websites since 1997, no malicious programs are downloaded.
What I have tried related to Firefox:
Running in Safe Mode: Can't access safemode, browser does not launch far enough to have the menu interactable.
Trying to launch the profile manager yields nothing.
Uninstalling and Reinstalling Firefox yields no result.
The only error that I have gotten is a XPRCOM error or something and the solutions for that have not worked for me as I do not have multiple installations of Firefox on my machine.
I would attach a screenshot of how Firefox looks, but I am unable to as of this post it has devolved to launching as a background process and crashing immediately.
Help?
App is broken; something is wrong. I'd like to use a Browser that is not Chrome.
