Firefox on Windows 10 Weird Crashing Error

more options

Hello, I've encountered a weird issue with my Firefox browser. If I touch ANY key on my keyboard (mouse is fine) while it is the focused window, it will crash instantly. No question or hesitation. Started at least a week ago, but not sure since I don't type much on this browser, so earlier crashes (very few) could correlate too. Having to use Chrome to actually make this post.

Yes it is updated. Yes I tried opening a second window (crashes both). Yes I tried opening a second window in incognito (crashes both). Yes I've tried safe made by holding Shift while opening. Still crashes, every time.
