This is on my husband's Mac computer - so I run up and down stairs to attempt a fix. Fortunately he also has Safari browser so is able to use the computer. But the vast majority of his bookmarks are on Firefox. He's taking it in to be looked at tomorrow. If they can't fix it, he will have it totally removed from the computer - and will add Chrome as an alternate.
Thanks for responding.

Let’s do a full clean re-install; Download Firefox For All languages And Systems {web link} Save the file. Then Close Firefox.
Using your file browser, open the Programs Folder on your computer.
Windows: C:\Program Files

Do Not remove the profiles folder.
Look for, and rename any Mozilla or Firefox program folders by adding .old to them. Do not rename the Mozilla Thunderbird folder.
After rebooting the computer, run a registry scanner. Then run the installer. If all goes well, remove the OLD folders when you are done.
If there is a problem, start your Computer in safe mode and try again.
