When i just try to open firefox it opens a private window thats not even in private mode and it won;t let me open a normal firefox window. This happened after the latest firefox nightly update.

You appear to be using an unstable Nightly build.

What makes you think that this is a Private Browsing window as it is quite possible that you are confused by new features ?

Can you attach a screenshot?
