"Profile missing" error spam + hundreds of "firefox.exe" processes on task manager

I tried to resolve this problem like delete and re-download new Firefox, delete/rename "Profiles.ini", but nothing helps. Before I've got just randomly popping "profile missing", but now it spams with it also now there are bunch of firefox.exe/ffcert.exe processes on my Task Manager. What's wrong?
