Firefox crashing

stevedb11

I have been using Firefox for quite a few years without any problems at all, and in the past week it has been crashing a lot, I have done a refresh and disabled add ons, but it still occasionally crashes.
I'm using Windows 10, and the Firefox version is Qauntum 67.0(64-bit)
Has anybody had the same probs. Thanks in advance.

Maybe the Quantum build you are using is causing instability in your specific rig. Have you tried a different build as sometimes this resolves the problem?...

Thanks for the reply,sorry for my nontech, but how do I change the build?

I think 67.0 is a very new build. My machine has been pestering me to upgrade to it for the last few days, but I decided to wait a little while - perhaps for the .1 release - to ensure it's stable.

So perhaps it's a recently-introduced problem. Are you configured to automatically download and install new releases ? You said you did a refresh after it had started crashing, but I wonder if it had already updated itself by then.

Running 67.0 on 5 different spec machines problem free.

Issues and crashes in Firefox are almost always caused by either a corrupt profile or an add-on.

Try making a new profile:

Also running 67 problem free here.

No probs here running 67.0 (64-bit)


A new version of Firefox has been released 67.0.1 (64-bit)


Try updating to the latest version to see if that resolves any issues.

I had an update just over a week ago, it crashed once the next day but been working perfectly fine since then.
