[Bug 2056436] [NEW] Every time Firefox starts it produces a file not found page

[Owen]

Public bug reported:

Every time Firefox starts it produces a file not found page saying


File not found

Firefox can’t find the file at /snap/snapd/current/usr/bin/snap.

    Check the file name for capitalisation or other typing errors.
    Check to see if the file was moved, renamed or deleted.

There is no such file on the system. There is a /snap directory, but not
/snap/snapd/ .


This happens regardless of the at Startup settings
