Every time I start Firefox, a pop up ad about fixing my PC appears. I want to get rid of it.

You can also check the target line in the Firefox desktop shortcut (right-click: Properties) to make sure that nothing is appended after the path to the Firefox program.

hello ram085, there's a user.js file present in your profile folder, which is often used by adware to override your custom preferences.

in order to fix that go to firefox > help > troubleshooting information > profile folder - "show folder", then a new window will open up. in this window look out for a file named user.js, in case it is present , delete or rename this file and restart firefox afterwards.

finally you can install the search reset addon which will revert the most common changes by adware programs in firefox: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/searchreset/
