After FF update, browser fails to open. Must reboot PC to enter browser again. Happens on every update. Scanned and malware free. No windows updated failures recorded. Other PC can re enter browser after FF update. Please assist if possible. Mahalo

Hi, try this : uninstall Firefox. Then Delete the Mozilla Firefox Folders in C:\Program Files , C:\Program Files(x86) & C:\ProgramData Then restart system. Then run Windows Disk Cleanup. (Note: This should be Pinned and run Weekly, If never done below expect 10's of gig's) Then run it again and click the button that says Cleanup System Files. Note: your Firefox Profile is saved. But you should make a back up before you do :

Reinstall with Current Release Firefox 61.0.2 with a Full Version Installer
