BABYLON not supported on Firefox 45.0.1

Hello and sorry if that's something trivial.

I have an application in development that uses BABYLON 2.3 and today (as of right now) I've noticed on Firefox version 45.0.1 that BABYLON.Engine.isSupported() gave false result. Tested after that on Chrome, Edge, IE 11, works on all of them. Until yesterday it worked also on previous version of Firefox that I had. No changes were made to code from yesterday until this moment.

Is that something common or is just my computer. 

Note: For the moment, I cannot test this on another computer, just on the one I develop.

Thank you again

Thanks for the reply,

WebGl is enabled on about:support panel, I see the card and driver version,  but I also see some entries there like this:

(#0) Error    GLContext is disabled due to a previous crash.
(#1) Error    GLContext is disabled due to a previous crash.
(#2) Error    GLContext is disabled due to a previous crash.
(#3) Error    GLContext is disabled due to a previous crash.
(#4) Error    GLContext is disabled due to a previous crash. 

Indeed, yesterday after the update to the new version of Firefox, I had a crash on the browser, but I didn't follow it then to see what happened. I'll investigate it now, 

Thank you for your time

I had a keyboard hang, have had nothing but problems since got a wireless keyboard dropping strokes.  Going to have to try and find a REAL keyboard that has a wire.

Anyway, hit reset button, and now Firefox 45.0.1 webgl does not work.  Did you ever get it working?  Firefox nightly works, except it tries to do SIMD and fails.  I could disable SIMD when I morph, and I could be doing a major update to Ubuntu 16.04 LTS.  Might just side-step problem.

I am back!

Just for the future searcher.  There is hidden directory '~/.mozilla'.  In that directory, there is a 'firefox' directory.  If you delete that directory, it will be rebuilt, & webgl works again.  MAKE SURE you backup your bookmarks first!!  You will need to restore them afterward.  Also, if you were using the toolbar for bookmarks, you need to make it visible again.
