Ever since upgrading to Windows 10 Firefox crashes. It doesn't crash when doing the same thing, just appears to crash when it wants to. I've tried refreshing the install, no luck.

hi jameunier, unfortunately this is a (still unresolved) issue with nivida graphics cards on windows 10 - for the moment please try to disable hardware acceleration in the firefox menu ≡ > options > advanced > general which should make those crashes stop (that setting will take a restart of the browser to take effect).
