Continuous Crashing even after 3 refreshes; Profiles messed up, leading to constant "Restart to update"
I've been having problems with Firefox Developer Edition for a little while now. It freezes up frequently, and crashes more than it reasonably should. I've gone through and removed all the addons that I don't absolutely need, thinking that might be the problem, but it hasn't helped tremendously.
Also, I used to have Profilist installed, and I switched profiles around several times. I previously submitted an issue where I constantly have the "Restart to update to Firefox Developer Edition 37.02a" message every time I open the browser (after it supposedly updates). I assume this is because I'm not on the default profile, which has been deleted. I've tried to rename a profile to just "Firefox," but that doesn't work. What can I do to try to restore a default profile?

There is a red flagged Intel Graphics driver dll file; igdusc32.dll Please make sure your graphics cards and webgl drivers are up to date: Upgrade your graphics drivers to use hardware acceleration and WebGL
If they are, please try to make sure that this does not happen in Safe Mode. This will temporarily disable hardware acceleration, addons and some Firefox settings.
