Firefox 47.0 crashes after installation

I have a new computer with Win10. After installation of Firefox 47.0 (64bit) it crashes immediately. This is a fresh(clean) installation of Firefox on this computer. Installation completed sucessfully. I performed insttalation and stared it both as normal user and as administrator but Firefox crashed immediately after displaying an error report. Unfortunately no error code is displayed. I tried to run it in safe mode too, but it didn't help.

Could be the 64-bit build isn't compatible with your setup. Can you use the 32-bit build?

Every one of those crashes is related to Websense Endpoint Client software. Check for an update for that application or disable that application.
