Closed Quantum. Closed Firefox.

Hi, 1st of all Firefox Volunteers supply Support only. 2nd Do not ever install a another version of Firefox while another is running. 3rd Do not install a 2nd Firefox on the same h/drive or partion as the other one. Ask as do not want the Profiles to co mingle. 4th Firefox Developer Edition has a Compatibility Mode to allow it to run any where but it does share your bookmarks so always before doing something or just because :

- https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/export-firefox-bookmarks-to-backup-or-transfer
There is no way that Mozilla Firefox was the issue here. We are sorry to here of your instance though and do understand the anguish.
Please look on the Desktop for a folder called OldFirefoxProfile, it is doubtful this got created in this circumstance.
Please look in here :
For a 2nd Profile Folder it will be the oldest dated one.
