Hello, I'm trying to install Firefox (had it installed and running before). The installer works fine, both the downloader and the full installer, but when Firefox starts, all that I get is that empty dialog shown in the image. Tried uninstalling, restarting, deleting AppData folders, registry entries, etc. But no luck. Any suggestions? Thanks!

PS: Running Win 10 64-bit fully updated
