Firefox crashes
I haven't been able to open firefox without it crashing for over a year. I've tried clean installs. Ran anti-virus/malware programs to see if there were any and haven't found anything. Once I open firefox or firefox developers edition and try to access any site the browser crashes. I've recently tried reinstalling firefox developers edition and on first open it crashed. I tried again and now it's only crashing the tab when I try to load a site and not the whole browser. I've attached the latest crash report ID: bp-132d6b3c-fcaf-43bc-a61b-72e690190619

hi, this particular crash report doesn't seem to contain much information to go on. could you try pasting a handful more recent crash report ids from about:crashes - perhaps they'll shine more light on the problem...
Try to create a new profile to test if your current profile is causing the problem.
See "Creating a profile":
- https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/profile-manager-create-and-remove-firefox-profiles
- http://kb.mozillazine.org/Standard_diagnostic_-_Firefox#Profile_issues
If the new profile works then you can transfer files from a previously used profile to the new profile, but be cautious not to copy corrupted files to avoid carrying over problems.

I'm not able to keep FireFox open long enough for it not to crash when I try to access about:crashes.
If you can't start Firefox, see: How to get the crash ID if Firefox crashes on startup:

I currently don't have a user profile logged in. I'm not able to keep firefox open long enough without it crashing. I tried creating a new user via terminal and it still crashed. I was able to have it open long enough to see there was a default user.

I was able to get these through the terminal:
