Firefox wont launch on my laptop after I did a “restore” to it (after it poped out saying my browser is slower than it should be and “restart”ing it will make it faster).

I tried: - reinstall it. - clean uninstall (as recommended by one of the articles on this website) But still not working.

What should I do? I dont want to lose my bookmarks.

Hi, hold down Shift (Option key on Mac) when you start Firefox to start in Safe Mode. More - Diagnose Firefox issues using Troubleshoot Mode. If it works in Safe Mode, disable any theme or add-ons you have - Add-ons Manager (Ctrl/Cmd+Shift+A) > Themes/Extensions, then if it's OK, re-enable them one by one until you find the culprit. You may need to restart Firefox after enabling some add-ons.


Try starting from the Start Menu > Mozilla Firefox. If it works; in Win10 you can drag from the Start Menu to your Desktop or right click and pin the icon in the Task Bar. (Win7 right click in the Start Menu > Send to Desktop).


When you did the clean reinstall, did you remove the installation folder as shown in step 3? Note that this process does not remove your Firefox profile data (such as bookmarks and passwords), since that information is stored in a different location.

    • Mac: Delete Firefox from the Applications folder.
    • Linux: If you installed Firefox with the distro-based package manager, you should use the same way to uninstall it - see Install Firefox on Linux. If you downloaded and installed the binary package from the Firefox download page, simply remove the folder firefox in your home directory.

Thank you very much

Just entering Safe Mode (without disabling anything) solved the problem.

Thanks for your help.
