I cannot go on the Firefox with the default user settings, so I tried looking in the jhe1eeay.default folder (as I've read somewhere else), found the parent.lock file, and tried deleting it. However, I can't delete it, and this is the message I get:
Cannot delete parent: The file or directory is corrupted and unreadable.
Cannot delete parent: The file or directory is corrupted and unreadable.
Then you have misstyped the filename. Otherwise try an error check of the disk.

First, the file is named "parent.lock". You have that correctly stated in your original post. There should be no problem to delete this file if FF is not running. Check the task manager (process tab).
Second, a disk check is done as follows:
Open an explorer window. Select the drive C: (i assume you installed windows on the C drive). Right click on the c drive icon, select "Properties -> Extras (or Advanced) -> Check drive for errors -> Check now"
Your drive is now checked for errors.
