Down of Firefox 53a01 (Nightly)
The crash code is: Crash ID: bp-38599749-f2db-449d-b177-b35c72170205
Chosen solution
The 53.0a1 build you have is a old Nightly channel build from Nov 16, 2016.
The 53.0 version has been on the Aurora development channel since Jan 23, 2017.
Release < Beta (b#) < Aurora (a2) < Nightly (a1)
The Nightly and Aurora development channel builds gets checkins almost every day so they get updates each of those days. This can sometimes cause issues until fixed, finished or reverted in a later build update. A version on Beta channel can get six to twelve builds though 51.0 had fourteen.
If you you do not want to be a Tester and updating frequently then you should use the Release or Beta builds instead.

Look for, and rename any Mozilla or Firefox program folders by adding .old to them. Do not rename the Mozilla Thunderbird folder if there is one.
After rebooting the computer, run a registry scanner if you have one. Then run the installer. If all goes well, remove the OLD folders when you are done.
