When I try to run Firefox I get the message "Firefox is already running, but is not responding. To open a new window, you must first close the existing Firefox process, or restart your system."

No copy of firefox is running as far as I can tell. Restart and restoring system to 10 days ago did not help.

Uninstalling and downloading a new copy - but to not avail.

See:

Do you still have a default profile?
If not then delete the file profiles.ini to make Firefox create a new default profile.
