Currently using Aurora [Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Ubuntu; Linux x86_64; rv:33.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/33.0 ID:20140804085133 CSet: Undefined] on Ubuntu 14.04

Whenever I install a new Addon and need to restart, Aurora simply closes ang gets 'hangged' on memory without restarting.

This happens since I have two different profiles [currently one with a full-charge of addons, and one that uses no addons].

Hi HenryGR, Thank you for your question.

Please make sure in both profiles that the extensions are up to date: Troubleshoot extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems

Also let's start here for general hanging, even though it may have to do with a process happening there: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/firefox-hangs-or-not-responding#w_fi...

What are the results after these troubleshooting steps?
