I upgraded to the new firefox saved the application and when I click on the Icon to open the browser it doesn't open. I have tried to uninstalled and re-installed it as well and it still won't open.

A possible cause is security software (firewall) that blocks or restricts Firefox without informing you about that, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.

Remove all rules for Firefox from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox and the plugin-container process.
