you are mixing theme's - this is a sure way to kill mozilla -

every version of mozilla _only_ works with themes designed for that version

if you want to use multiple versions you ned multiple profiles, one for
each
version,  start mozilla with -ProfileManager and create a new profile, if
you migrate a earlier profile , make sure that either Modern or Classis is
the theme in use before the migration
