    In the help location find troubleshooting information .
    Then scroll until you see
    Crash Reports for the Last 3 Days.
    Click All Crash Reports .
    Then choose your date .

    I'm on the beta release channel on one of my computers (currently 48.0b4), I'm not sure why you think deep pockets would be required given that it costs nothing and the only thing it could really break is itself, and if that happened (it hasn't) I could simply go back to the production release. I switched to beta when it was suggested as a cure for some issues that the production release was having at the time and I've never looked back.

    I was referring to other Beta releases in general, not just FF. When I say "deep pockets" I am referring to the Beta installation that crashed a PC a few years ago and necessitated expense to rectify. Read it again please.

    OP: I told you how to obtain a Crash Report. Read my initial Post again, please.
    I think this job really needs
    a much bigger hammer.

    This is NOT a windows issue - so "about crashes" won't work !

    I've had one Firefox v47.0.1 crash a couple of days ago, but can't remember ever having one when the version numbers were less stupid!

    Fixed it ...
    I asked Mozillla - who told me

    Why not, the crash reports are available in Firefox type about:crashes in Firefox address bar ..... I believe hans2 was trying to get you to try that in Firefox not Windows
