What error message do you get?

Can you attach a screenshot?

Use a compressed image type like PNG or JPG to save the screenshot.

You can try to use one of these to start Firefox in Safe Mode:

  • On Windows, hold down the Shift key while starting Firefox with a double-click on the Firefox desktop shortcut
  • On Mac, hold down the Options key while starting Firefox
