Whenever I click on Firefox to open it very quickly flashes profile not found and closes and I cannot open the profile manager at all in any way and when I go to files to look at my profiles there is no profile in there I've tried doing things in command prompt and even running firefox in administrator and the profile manager in administrator but neither will open and I don't know what to do? is there anything I can do to try and fix it to get firefox to even launch or open at all?
