I have tried to start Firefox but all I get is the message below:

"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".

I have reinstalled Firefox and restarted my PC but I STILL get this message.

I have checked in Windows Task Manager but Firefox is NOT listed as a running process.

Have you any suggestions please?

Thanks TonyE, after changing my Profile, I am now able to start Firefox again. 8-) However, do you have any ideas how I can retrieve my Bookmarks? (Grrrrrh, I didn't back them up manually, are they auto backed up, do you know?) Cheers Muggins aka Chris 8-(

You can recover data from the old profile, see Transferring data to a new profile.

You do still have a Firefox Profile Folder ?

If all Firefox profile folders are removed but there is still a file profiles.ini that links to a non-existing profile then you get the same error message.
