Why won't open because I have another copy open, when I don't?

Firefox froze on me when I tried to save my progress in Super Mario Crossover. So I force quit it, after waiting for an hour for it to try and fix itself. I had about 20 tabs open, maybe slight more. Most were links to an academic article website, so nothing too taxing I don't think.

Well, once it closed I tried to reopen it. When I did, I was given the prompt :

"Close Firefox

A copy of Firefox is already open. Only one copy of Firefox can be open at a time."

Well, I don't have another copy open. How do I go about solving this problem.

This happened

Just once or twice

This just happened
