i tried to update, and now it wont open. when i try to re-download, it tells me that i have to shut down firefox, and that its already running so it wont install. when i click the icon to make firefix start, nothing happens. this is true of my desktop shortcut, and also in the start menu.

I had same problem too. Sometimes Firefox cannot start its interface but its task does run. I can try to turn it off by Windows Task Manager (end process firefox.exe) then start Firefox again. Or else remove it and install again. Hope this help
