Every time I launch a fresh copy of Firefox all my saved accounts ect are gone. Now I know they aren't gone because the profiles.json files is still there. What has happened is firefox has taken the cookies.sqlite and added .bak on the end.

I've reinstalled firefox, tripple checked my settings and clearing stored data on browser close. What am I missing to stop firefox from doing this?
