I have downloaded firefox but it will not launch why?
I had Firefox and it crashed. It would never launch again. I then removed it from my laptop and restarted. I then downloaded it again. Same results. What is going on? Today I downloaded again and it launched but now when I open my computer again, it will not launch.

I'm not sure if it came up while you were posting your question, but there are several troubleshooting suggestions in this article: Firefox won't start - find solutions.
Could you try starting Firefox in its Safe Mode? That's a standard diagnostic tool to deactivate extensions and some advanced features of Firefox. More info: Diagnose Firefox issues using Troubleshoot Mode.
Hold down the Shift key when starting Firefox. A small dialog should appear. Click "Start in Safe Mode" (not Reset).
Will Firefox start up?
Sometimes a strict "program control" firewall or malware will stop Firefox from running. You can investigate these possibilities further using the steps/tools in these articles:
- Configure firewalls so that Firefox can access the Internet
- Troubleshoot Firefox issues caused by malware
