I set up a proxy in the browser using an address from a proxy list website and right after I did that it crashed every time I tried to open the browser. I searched on Chrome, trying to find a way to manually access my settings outside of the browser since I couldn't even get in to the browser, and I was directed to my profile. No website said how to alter the settings but they did say my settings were contained in the profiles. I thought to myself, "Since all my settings are in that profile, deleting it and reinstalling Firefox should fix it." It unfortunately didn't and now I have absolutely no way to make a new profile and every time I try to open Firefox it says I have an instance of the application running already.

Hi,

Please try firefox -p -no-remote in the Start > Run box (or press windows key + R if the Run box is not present), delete all the profiles with the files in it and create a new one. Please also see Firefox Profile Folder & Files and Backup.
