Firefox will stop or start.

Firefox will stop or start.

I tried to run it in normal mode and safe mode, but I get the same results. I get the following two messages:

                    CLOSE FIREFOX "Firefox is already running, but is not responding.  The old Firefox process must be closed to open a new window."

When I select Cancel or close Firefox, it is followed by

                    PROFILE MISSING "Your Firefox profile cannot be loaded.  It may be missing or inaccessible."

I uninstalled and reinstalled Firefox. Same result.
I uninstalled, deleted registry and re-installed. Same result.

I'm at a complete loss what to do next.

  • When firefox will stop support 3rd party cookies by default much like Safari doing now?

    Safari by default does not accept 3rd party cookies and it was reported that Firefox will follow suit. No information regarding the chronology as when it enters into force would be highly appreciated!
    Thank you

    New or changed rules cookie generally applies to new cookies. If the behavior of existing, normal and third-party cookies, should not change. What does not change that is the default behavior of the new third party cookies.

  • How can I get rid of a 'sidebar' (an additional site without on the left of the screen) that is still there after restarting Firefox and even cold, start the computer?

    I opened a Web site of the library without specifying "in a new tab. I expected to crush the existing active tab. Instead, he opened in a demi-fenetre on the left, without tab and without all the icons "Min/Max/Close. I can not close it even by restarting Firefox or stop and start the computer. He now appears on each screen in Firefox with each tab. I note the address of the site to be replaced, but the offending site is https://servicing.capitalone.com/c1/login.aspx.

    There is an 'X' in the top right of the sidebar.
    You can replace it with a different sidebar; Therefore, you can use "Ctrl + B" to bring up the sidebar bookmarks, use "Ctrl + B" once more to turn it took off.

    Click on the star to bookmark to bring up the bookmark, in the lower left corner, if you see the following, uncheck the box.

    [X] load this bookmark in the sidebar.

    You can right click a bookmark to display the bookmark properties, uncheck the "load this bookmark in the sidebar".

    In the sidebar

    1. Right-click to bring up the Page Info
    2. Triple - click the url
    3. use "Ctrl + B" to bring up the Bookmarks Sidebar
    4. Paste the url in search, then right click on the found object to bring up the bookmark properties

    In the list of Favorites library there is unfortunately no column in the list of library of favorites for this feature, but you can click on the bookmark and properties will be displayed on the box under the same information, if you see a drop-down list "gone" click to view the list of properties.

    If you want to see the extent that you have these bookmarks you export our bookmarks in bookmarks.html file and then view the source and use of find for WEB_PANEL = "true" - I have the extension 'Search all', so I can see how many times the string occurs and where.

    It has a turbulent history, it is useful as a reference column, but it was destroyed in Firefox 3, after use in a link, use, restoration of use later but not keyworded bookmarks and not places links both where it makes sense to break. Remained at does not not for keywords because they wanted to destroy the mot-cle--Word key lost for a year in the beta version of Firefox 3. Now, it must be eliminated because few people (can) use it (properly), but they will make this inaccessible box first - someone ' else see the additional error with that.

  • Closed all apps before stop then start in morning, said open Firefox "well, it's embarrassing." Why?

    I have a new HP and Windows 7. I always close my apps before closing every night. In the morning, I open Firefox, Thunderbird and Sunbird first. Lately Firefox has been coming up with the very polite error message: "well, it's embarrassing." Then he said: he can't recharge the session.

    The final is to correctly close Firefox via the file (Alt + F) or Firefox button output > output. Please also note that plugins can cause a slight delay in the Firefox shutdown sequence. He could so that Windows will stop before that Firefox is completely closed. You can check if firefox.exe is still ongoing in right-clicking the taskbar Windows and Start Task Manager, click the processes tab. Also, look for plugincontainer.exe. If Firefox takes a long time to exit, right-click on the plugincontainer.exe and complete the process.

  • 32 Firefox will not start after a download.

    On windows XP sp3. Chrome and Iexplorer 8 will take place. Firefox will launch. Cannot run firefox.exe Pei either.

    You can start Firefox in Safe Mode by holding down the shift/Options button?

    Do a clean reinstall and delete the program folder before Firefox to (re) install a new copy of the current version of Firefox.

    If possible to uninstall your current version of Firefox to clean the Windows registry and settings in the security software.

    • Do NOT remove the "personal data" when you uninstall your current version of Firefox, because this will remove all profile folders and you lose personal data such as bookmarks and passwords including data profiles created by other versions of Firefox.

    Delete the program folder Firefox before installing newly downloaded copy of the Firefox installer.

    • (32-bit Windows) "C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\"
    • (Windows 64 bit) "C:\Program Files (x 86) \Mozilla.

    Your bookmarks and other personal data are stored in the Firefox profile folder and will not be affected by a uninstall and (re) install, but do NOT delete personal data when you uninstall Firefox which removes all Firefox profile folders and you lose your data.

    If you keep problems also create a new profile.

      • Mac: Delete Firefox in the Applications folder.
      • Linux: If you have installed Firefox with the distribution-based package manager, you must use the same way to uninstall: see Install Firefox on Linux.

    4. Now, go ahead and reinstall Firefox:
      1. Double-click on the downloaded Setup file and go through the steps in the installation wizard.

  • Windows Firefox will not close.

    Hello
    I am running windows 8.1 and Firefox 38.0.1. whenever I click on the Red 'x' to close Firefox, Firefox will not close. If I want to close all tabs, Firefox does not close the last tab. If I try to merge windows (by dragging the tab of a window in a different window) Firefox will create a blank tab on the window where I dragged the dragged tab. So far, the only way to close the Fire Fox is click on the close button or to stop by the Task Manager. When I re - open Firefox Windows and previous tabs are also there, and I'm still not able to close them. I restarted my PC and reinstalled Firefox (uninstalled and re-download). However, after downloading Firefox... the same windows will be opened, with the same tabs! It's horrible!

    Hello cach_dies,

    Try Firefox Safe mode to see if the problem goes away. Firefox Safe mode is a troubleshooting mode that temporarily disables hardware acceleration, restores some settings and disables add-ons (extensions and themes).

    If Firefox is open, you can restart Firefox Safe mode in the Help menu:

    • Click the menu button

      click Help

      then select restart with disabled modules.

    If Firefox does not work, you can start Firefox in Mode safe as follows:

    • On Windows: Hold down the SHIFT key when you open the desktop Firefox or shortcut in the start menu.
    • On Mac: Hold the option key during the startup of Firefox.
    • On Linux: Exit Firefox, go to your Terminal and run firefox-safe-mode
      (you may need to specify the installation path of Firefox for example/usr/lib/firefox)

    When the Firefox Safe Mode window appears, select "start mode safe."

    If the problem is not present in Firefox Safe Mode, your problem is probably caused by an extension, theme or hardware acceleration. Please follow the steps described in the section Troubleshooting extensions, themes and problems of hardware acceleration to resolve common Firefox problems to find the cause.

    To exit safe mode of Firefox, simply close Firefox and wait a few seconds before you open Firefox for normal use again.

    When find you what is causing your problems, please let us know. This might help others with the same problem.

  • Since my last update, Firefox will often not restart after a closing session, unless I restart my computer. How can I fix?

    This problem has just started in the last two weeks, but it happens several times a day (not every time that I stop a session of Firefox, but often enough to be really annoying).

    Hello, it's currently a bug when you installed firefox to clear your history firefox is stopped in the privacy options. This will be fixed in the next version of the browser - because now you can run the beta version of firefox 30 which should not be affected by this problem: https://www.mozilla.org/firefox/beta/

  • I get the message "firefox has stopped working" after closing browser

    Hello.

    My problem is that when I close the FireFox browser, I get the message "FireFox has stopped working". It's pretty boring. I have read some other posts here that describes a similar problem and we tried some of the suggestions in them including:

    A clean install, a reset of the browser, running in safe mode, uncheck hardware acceleration, disabling Extensions and plugins one at a time, uninstall my antivirus (avast), backward to 23.01 and audit version run in compatibility mode that someone claims to be helped. None of this has been effective.

    It seems that after a reboot of the computer, the browser will be ok for 2-4 closures and then it will start by the message at each end. In addition, after uninstalling avast was good for 6 closures. Roll back also gave me approximately 6 free message closures. But then, the messages and does not stop.

    Is there anything else I can try? Thanks in advance for your suggestions.


  • Why does Firefox launch at the start of my system? Where can I turn?

    I installed the new operating system Mac OS X Lion. Suddenly, Firefox starts the time starts - it is NOT in my connection objects in my account settings.

    I found on another site that when you choose stop there is a checkbox indicating to reopen the windows when you log back in. If the box is checked apps/windows you had open when stopping down, i.e. firefox will autolaunch when you restart your computer. I unchecked the box and firefox did not autolaunch again. I hope this helps.

  • From 50.0, Firefox will not load the tabs. How can I treat?

    Recently (very probably coinciding with the 50.0 update), Firefox suddenly stopped loading tabs. All the pages get stuck on 'connection '.... "as well as system as topic tabs: support and about: config. Google.com and other Web sites and locations internal intranet do not load.

    The first tab that opens at the start of Firefox will sit on a white page indefinitely, not to load the page speed dial 'shortcut '. Not even the tabs system such as topic: support load. If a second tab is open, and the first tab is closed, then the tabs system become available, but websites will always be blocked to 'connection '.... »

    This troubling behavior began to appear in dozens of jobs in our Organization. On each of them, except one (so far), we were able to resolve by obtaining: support to load using the method described above and refreshing of Firefox, which leads me to believe there is some sort of problem with the profile.

    On a desktop, Firefox seems to work after a refresh, but after an instance of Firefox is closed and a new opening, the new question asserts itself. When you open Firefox under a new user profile, it works once before breaking. On this particular station, I tried uninstall Firefox and reinsert several times without success, as well as facility nightly, which presents the same exact issues as the regular version. I'm stumped on how to solve this problem for the end user. I even tried to run CCleaner.

    Any ideas?

    Hi HaggenIT, can you please try the following and see if it works: enter Subject: config in the address bar of firefox (confirmed the message information where it appears) & search for the preference named browser.tabs.remote.autostart.2. Double-click it and change its value to false.
