    There could be another firefox running stopping it from opening,

    press Ctrl+Alt+Delete

    In the task manager click on the Processes tab and if firefox.exe is running click on it and then End Process. Then try Firefox again

    Works for me

    try download the latest version and install it again, all your favourites and settings should be still there after the install.
