Public bug reported: A freshly updated firefox (to 46) does not work anymore if there is already a firefox profile. Basically everything is broken: sessions, menus even browsing by typing in a web address.
As a work around (sort of), one can delete the profile (~/.mozilla) and start fresh ... and lose all settings, extensions etc. Or downgrade until this is fixed. I get this issue on two machines running a fully updated xubuntu trusty. ** Affects: firefox (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1575708 Title: Firefox 46 works only with fresh profile To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/firefox/+bug/1575708/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
