I cleared history, now Firefox MacOS won't work.
Hi everybody. Things were going slow, so I saw a recommendation to clear my history. I first did clear 4 hours, then today, then all. This last one took a very long time, and I had to force quit Firefox.
After that it appeared to start, but did not open a window.
I followed the directions to create a new profile, and transferred bookmarks and passwords as instructed. This worked fine. All was looking good.
Then I thought to simplify things for the future by changing preferences to clear history when quitting Firefox. Now we're back to the problem again.
Looking forward to your wise counsel!

You can check for problems with the places.sqlite database file in the Firefox profile folder.
