Started yesterday, Aug 1st. My tabs keep crashing, frequently. I have not changed anything on my computer that I know of; although I do get some automatic updates. I'm not very technical, and not quite sure what to do next. Here are some of the crash report numbers

The first report is the only recent, and the others are too old to be useful.

Make sure all programs and their files are up to date.

I'm not sure I understand, all of these are crash reports from today. 8/2/2019. What do you need to help me solve this problem?

Only the first report you posted is from today. The others are from 2018

They are all dated today, see below...why do you keep saying they are from 2018? -70fa-4444-9638-dc8970190802 8/2/2019 12:22 PM bp-c01b3868-7c98-4c5c-9691-8a1ea0190802 8/2/2019 11:51 AM bp-c743a74e-2a3f-4b0d-b31e-3548b0190802 8/2/2019 11:51 AM bp-2676db57-8110-48ea-9984-7f8670190802 8/2/2019 11:51 AM bp-cfbf68ee-401c-4393-b509-e7ed90190802 8/2/2019 11:51 AM bp-0cc0568e-b666-4f53-8053-447da0190802 8/2/2019 11:51 AM bp-66d3d5db-b48f-481e-b613-f47a70190802 8/2/2019 11:51 AM bp-2f4c94dd-b07f-4a43-bd6c-cbdac0190802 8/2/2019 11:51 AM bp-00e26a86-7574-4d31-b8ef-536830190802 8/2/2019 11:51 AM bp-addcfccb-8a3c-415c-9028-705cf0190802 8/2/2019 11:51 AM bp-0eee15ae-ea96-47ec-b6fc-ef93a0190802 8/2/2019 11:51 A

The time/date shown are when the reports were sent to the Mozilla servers. The reports have the information on when the crash occurred.

Have you done the updating as I suggested?

So, I’m really confused since each of the reports I sent today were generated each time a tab crashed today. It happened 20+ times. None the less, I tried updating Firefox even though I was running the current version, and still had the problem. I ran in safe mode and had the problem. I uninstalled and reinstalled Firefox and still had the problem. Finally, I tried deactivating the software acceleration and that stopped the tabs from crashing but made everything run really slow. I am running Windows 10 so should be able to run at the default acceleration level according to the footnote in that screen. I really don’t know what to do next. I’m sorry if this is getting drawn out but I can’t figure out what changed that started the problem in the first place.

I called for more help.
