I was refreshing firefox and my comp crashed. When I got it back up firefox will not load... I get an error... Profile Missing... Your Firefox profile cannot be loaded. It may be missing or inaccessible. I tried uninstall and re-installed it but still get the same message... I tried restoring from my back up... No good... I tried system restore but there are no restore points present beyond updates. I tried signing in but it does not recognize my e mail or password. Help
