I cannot install or open firefox because I get a message saying the profile is missing so I try to create a new profile and it says an unexpected error occurred.

I reinstalled it a few times but no luck. I flushed my cache Tried developer edition

This application does not seem to work at all.

Type about:profiles<enter> in the address bar. How many profiles are listed? How many should be there? Also, open the folder in your file explorer.
