Firefox crashes repeatedly when starting for no apparent reason. I can't use it anymore. Here's the crash report:

Fred note this is a Linux user and not Windows. ruibart what Ubuntu version are you using as one potential crash on Firefox 46.0 startup can be caused by the version of Oxygen-GTK3 theme you have.
Thank you all for your answers. Since I could not enter firefox, I couldn't access the crash reports. All I can say is that I was using Linux Mint KDE 13. I turned off the computer with Firefox working, and the next time I started it, Firefox was crashing over and over again whenever I clicked on it to get it running.
Now I solved the problem by updating to Linux Mint KDE 17, with the same Firefox 46 that stopped working on the old system.
Thank you guys for your help, I'm marking the problem as solved.

Firefox will not start on its own. Something has to start it. What was the computer doing at the time? It's possible Firefox is associated to a file it should not be.

If you can't get Firefox to open, you will have to do this the hard way. https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/mozillacrashreporter Open the file browser / explorer on your computer. Note: You may have to enable Show Hidden Folders / Files. Enter this in the address bar;
