Keep crashing after latest install (just hangs, not responding). Tried to try to refresh, didn't help. Tried to uninstall and reinstall. Keeps getting stuck on migration (not responding) error (when I choose not to add old data, still won't run. I followed the help sections - after installing later windows updates I can no longer use restore to go back to before the latest mozilla update - error code is too long to cut and paste here.

HI, Please include the bp- as per the picture. The crash report is several pages of data. We need the report numbers to see the whole report.

  1. Enter about:crashes in the Firefox address bar and press Enter. A Submitted Crash Reports list will appear, similar to the one shown below.
  2. Copy the 5 most recent Report IDs that start with bp- and then go back to your forum question and paste those IDs into the "Post a Reply" box.

Note: If a recent Report ID does not start with bp- click on it to submit the report.

(Please don't take a screenshot of your crashes, just copy and paste the IDs. The below image is just an example of what your Firefox screen should look like.)

Will they still be retained if I've been installing and uninstalling?

How about booting your system on startup to "Safe Mode with Networking" F8 during the boot process and then see if you can remove it from there to reinstall it.
