FireFox will not open when I click on the icon or try to open it from the start menu. It had been working appropriately in the past. Don't want to lose my bookmarks by reinstalling. How can I save my bookmarks if I need to uninstall and reinstall?

Hi,

It could be that a security software installed in the system is blocking the new updated Firefox executable. You may have to go into the settings of the security software to re-trust Firefox.

Please also check if you are able to start Firefox by browsing to the Firefox installation folder (Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox\ or Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\ ) and clicking firefox.
