Firefox won't start after fresh re-install

more options

Problem = "Firefox is already running but is not responding" error. Firefox does not open a browser window. I uninstalled firefox, deleted the necessary files in the registry and deleted / backed-up all my profiles.

Still doesn't open. I cannot terminate the firefox.exe in the taskmanager. I also tried to open firefox in safe mode.

my profile.ini looks like this after the reinstall :

[Install308046B0AF4A39CB] Default=Profiles/br44he6u.default-release Locked=1

[Profile1] Name=default IsRelative=1 Path=Profiles/saqp6yc1.default Default=1

[Profile0] Name=default-release IsRelative=1 Path=Profiles/br44he6u.default-release

[General] StartWithLastProfile=1 Version=2

My installs.ini :

[308046B0AF4A39CB] Default=Profiles/br44he6u.default-release Locked=1


Registry files deleted before reinstall :

HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\FirefoxHTML; HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Mozilla; HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\MozillaPlugins; HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Mozilla; HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\MozillaPlugins.

Hi Wolf_1981, There have been issues lately with Win 7 x64. Try a Clean Install with the 32-bit version. Firefox keeps crashing at startup Scroll down to Try a clean install.
