Firefox won't boot when I double click the browser icon on desktop. I get a flashing hourglass instead. Might have something to do with Windows 10 update. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling the browser. I do not even get that annoying message from Microsoft asking if I really want to open up Firefox. Maybe blocked there. Any advice?

Start Firefox in Safe Mode {web link}

A small dialog should appear. Click Start In Safe Mode (not Refresh). Is the problem still there?

Start your Computer in safe mode with network support. Then start Firefox.
Try Secure websites. Is the problem still there?
