Why have VLC Media Player and Firefox stoped working in Windows 7?

Rohan asks:

I was browsing the net and watching a movie simultaneously. Suddenly, both my VLC and Mozilla were closed. Now even as I click on their icons they are not opening. I tried reinstalling them and also restored previous versions and troubleshooting compatibility, but it didn’t work.
