This could be the reason that some of the extensions, default theme and (or) JavaScript compiler do not respond.
To overcome this problem, Firefox can be started in Safe Mode.
On Linux terminal, type firefox –safe-mode
A window called Firefox Safe Mode with some troubleshooting options appears.
At that point, you can either continue to Safe Mode or select some troubleshooting options and restart Firefox in normal mode to apply the changes.
If you choose to continue in Safe Mode:
• All extensions will be disabled (but this will not reset any Firefox preferences that some extensions may modify).
• Firefox will be using the default theme.
• Default toolbar settings and controls will be used.
If you choose any of the troubleshooting options, the changes are only applied if you choose Make Changes and Restart.
