As of today, firefox crashes upon launch, safemode or not.

I've tried launching with shift, crash.

I've tried launching with commandline: firefox -safe-mode

It will run with -ProfileManager. I created a brand new profile and launched with that one, crash.

Windows 7 x64, fully patched. Recent scans done using a variety of virus, spyware, and malware products, including malware bytes, superantispyware, spybot, etc. No infections or malware found.

It was working fine yesterday, today it fails immediately upon launch. Here are the most recent crash ID strings:

Let's close this issue. I rebooted and now firefox is working flawlessly. I'm going to blame the weather. Thank you for your time.

Start your Computer in safe mode. Then start Firefox. Try Safe web sites.

Starting The Computer In Safe Mode;

If running, turn your computer off. Remove any disks and thumb drives that are in your hard drives or ports. Now start your computer but also;

Windows; Press the <F8> key repeatedly. Mac: Hold down the Shift key. Linux; Using the command line, Linux/Unix computers can be booted into various run levels that determine which resources are loaded. For example, "runlevel 1" is typically the equivalent to Windows and Mac safe modes.

When the Boot menu is displayed, release the key you were pressing. You must now choose what mode you want. The most used are;

  • Safe Mode; The computer runs with only a minimum set of programs.
  • Safe Mode With Networking; Same as above, but with internet access.
