Firefox crashes before even opening

Whenever I go to open Firefox, a "Mozilla Crash Reporter" appears. The only two options available to me from there are to close the window, restart Firefox, or quit Firefox. If I "restart Firefox," the window just pops up again. If I quit, the window merely closes. I tried restarting my computer. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling Firefox. I'm not especially computer savvy and don't know where to go from here.

Thank you for your help!
