Crashing and crashing
I have latest version of firefox on my windows 10 dell inspiron 7560 ... I have been using firefox for about 18 years now
system info - i7 - 8GB RAM, windows 10, one 128 GB SSD and other 512GB SSD
Since yesterday, it has been crashing after every 2-5 minutes; in troubleshooter mode as well...
I ran Windows RAM memory test, it turned out to be okay... I ran a Dell hardware test, it informed me that my fan is not working properly; though I doubt its the reason for my Firefox crashing
Below is one of the crashes in text - can someone help please?
