Firefox crashes with Windows 11's Mobile Hostspot is enabled

more options

This is a strange bug. I have a Dell Latitude 5490 i5 (8GB Ram). I recently installed Windows 11. Firefox freezes when I create a mobile hotspot to share the internet with my mobile devices. Then I'll have to disable the hotspot even to restart firefox! otherwise, with the mobile hotspot open, firefox doesn't re-start.

Edge works fine, never tested chrome. No other app freezes.

Any suggestion?

P.S I have the latest Firefox 101.0.1 (64-bit)

Hi Nizar Ud Din, I don't have any issues with Mobile Hotspot. However, I did find this on the Microsoft Technet forum -

Microsoft’s latest update, which rolled out June 16, is already causing an issue with some PCs.

According to the official Microsoft (opens in new tab) post – spotted by Windows Central – Windows 11 update KB5014697 is preventing the Wi-Fi hotspot feature from working correctly on some PCs. Some systems running the update will lose internet connection when acting as a hot-spot host for other devices.

The company is currently working on a permanent solution but meanwhile is offering the following temporary fix: "To mitigate the issue and restore internet access on the host device, you can disable the Wi-Fi hotspot feature. For instructions, please see Use your Windows PC as a mobile hotspot (opens in new tab)."

However, the best solution may be to uninstall the update altogether until there’s a proper fix for this issue. If you want to know how to do that, check out our How to uninstall a Windows 10 update guide, which has several options that will work with Windows 11 as well.
