Firefox crashes or fails to start
I am using a Windows XP machine. 3 days ago Firefox would not start. The process shows in Task Manager but never opens. Tried starting in Safe Mode but it crashes. The Crash Reporter will not submit the report.

Close Firefox. Open your file browser to this hidden location:

- Windows: %AppData%\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles
- *C:\Users\<user>\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles

\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\
Search for the above files. Then rename or delete them. Restart Firefox.
