Latest update is unstable on Windows 10
Since updating to the latest version, Firefox crashes constantly. All add-ons disabled, crashes on any website multiple time, crashes in Troubleshooting mode, crashes on restart. I've sent in about 10 reports today alone. Firefox is unstable and I'm unfortunately switching to Edge to continue to enjoy the web.

Not so fast buddy.... ;-)) What security software are your running? Did you try Windows in Safe Mode? Also, post a link or two to the crash report.

Firefox 106.0 is crashing repeatedly on certain sites for users with some AMD Zen CPUs.
Work is under way on a version 106.0.1 update to resolve this, but I don't know how quickly that can go through the build process and become available. Currently there is a test build linked in the following Reddit thread, and users are having good results with it so far. It's possible a further announcement will be made there:

Malwarebytes 4.5.14.210, updated 10/19, and Zone Alarm 15.8.139.18543, up-to-date.
I posted a pic with all of the reports I submitted yesterday. All of the ones that are listed as 10/19 occurred on 10/19 within minutes of each other. You can choose any one of those as they all happened with different situations - opening a website, recovering from a previous website crash, scrolling...

This sounds like my situation - I have one of the first-gen Ryzens. Thank you for this, this is very helpful! At least I know I'm not imagining things. I figure it'll take a few weeks to get the build out. I guess I'll check back here periodically to look for this version or greater.
