Since yesterday Firefox won't start when I click on the icon. There seems to be some activity but the window never opens.

I'm running Linux Mint release 14 in Virtual Box.

In the terminal I've tried firefox -safe-mode

I get: Error: Platform version '39.0.3' is not compatible with minVersion >= 39.0 maxVersion <= 39.0

I would be grateful for some help with this.

PS Since I can't start Firefox the data below is not from the version I have the problem with!
