I've submitted several reports to include the ones listed below. I can't use the browser as of now given the frequency of the crashes. I can't perform many tasks without it closing, that is to include just simply going into Tools>Options.

I updated Firefox on the morning of the 11th, and then performed a Windows update later on that day In which the following updates we're installed
