Firefox crashes when opening in safe mode
Crash ID: bp-3ce88c05-efd9-43aa-a6bd-cc62e1180405
Firefox crashed a few days back and wouldn't restart. Safe mode did not work and now neither is refresh firefox.
I have not reinstalled it yet and that may be the next step. Any help is appreciated.

Thanks for the quick response FredMcD. Windows 10 is what I have and it worked. Even sync was signed after reinstalling.
