Every time I try to upload a file to WordPress, Firefox crashes when the pop up window opens to browse my files. Besides the fact that this problem never happened before this week, the odd thing was, on one attempt, I tried to locate a file - and though Firefox crashed yet again- it crashed AFTER I selected the file and actually uploaded it. Every attempt before and after it crashed before I could even select a file. And it didn't crash when I tried to upload an image here! But I also notice the file isn't appearing in the uploaded images window below, the upload icon is circling in "the endless loop of death". Could it be that WordPress did something to their program because they are about to launch what they're calling an "upgrade"? or did microsuck issue another "upgrade" during last weekend and wreck everything again?

It looks like PdfCore8 dll is crashing your firefox. It may be connected with this: https://www.tenable.com/plugins/nessus/67122


And there's another strange issue in your telemetry. Go to Options => Privacy&Security => Permissions => check mark next to Prevent accessibility services from accessing your browser and restart the browser.
