Firefox closes itself and will not reopen. No crash report screen afterwards either.

With no pattern or specific preceding event, Firefox will close. It will not reopen and does not generate the send crash report box. I cannot reopen it unless I reboot my computer and even then sometimes it will not open. If I click on the icon it will spin and act like it's going to open but will not.

What is your computer system and Firefox?

Start Firefox in Safe Mode {web Link} by holding down the <Shift>
(Mac Options) key, and then starting Firefox. Is the problem still there?

Start your Computer in safe mode with networking. Then start Firefox. Try Safe web sites. Is the problem still there?
