where non user owned files in $HOME/.cache/mozilla/firefox caused it.

As reported there, pressing Ctrl-Shift-J revealed file access errors
within the Firefox profile directory, due to incorrect file ownerships.

You could run this command to ensure that these files are owned by your user:
sudo find $HOME/.cache/mozilla/firefox -not -user $USER -execdir chown 
$USER:$USER {} \;

If there are files owned by another user in your Firefox profile, this
could be a result of running the firefox process as another user - such
as by using 'sudo firefox'. This should not be done both for security
reasons and to prevent such issues.
