firefox nightly crashes on every attempt to open a URL so I did a health check refresh and its still crashing on any attempt to goto any and every URL

56.0a1 (2017-06-25) (64-bit)

doing the Help -> restart with addons disabled -> Refresh Nightly does not help still getting a crash when attempting to do anything including attempting to goto Help -> submit feedback yet even that crashes firefox nightly using above version

getting crashes even after doing Help -> restart with addons disabled -> Start in Safe Mode

I've been away for a few months yet firefox nightly was working fine this morning. After doing the normal update it was brought to firefox nightly 55 and was still OK then it did another update to version 56 then these crashes started

needless to say I submitted this report using a different browser than ff

How to do a more powerful reset ?
