Hi,

You can consider the Reset Firefox feature via Help (Alt + H) > Troubleshooting Information.

(To revert to the previous profile you were using, close the new profile, start Firefox and choose the Default User profile. While the Profile Manager is open, you can also delete the newly reset profile (the one containing random numbers), or the former profile, as the case may be).

I have the exact same problem.

When I start firefox I get the Firefox Safemode screen, but before I get the chance to press any buttons it crashes again, saying "Firefox has stopped working" Only thing that seems to work a little bit is continuing in SafeMode. Firefox then opens up and emidiately crashes with the "Firefox has stopped working" message.

This happened emidiately after updating to 14.0.1, before that I never had any problems like this.
