I can't start Firefox. I try double click, right click->open or press enter but nothing work. Then I look at processes in task manager, don't have firefox.exe there. And there isn't any error message. I already try restart computer or reinstall firefox several time but nothing happen.

Try Firefox (Safe Mode) shortcut in your Start Menu > All Programs > Mozilla Firefox. If that works you should delete any profile data and then create a new profile.
