It says the mostly likely cause is problems with files in your application's profile directory.

Hi,

Please try this: Help (Alt + H) > Troubleshooting Information, click Open Containing Folder. This opens your Firefox Profile Folder & Files. Exit Firefox and rename cert8.db, secmod.db and key3.db in the profile folder. You can delete them later.

Don't include key3.db because that file has nothing to do with that problem and you will lose access to all passwords that are saved in the password manager if you remove the key3.db file.
Removing the other mentioned files (secmod.db and cert8.db).
Start with secmod.db and if that still gives the error message then also remove cert8.db (stored intermediate certificates).
