I've been struggling for months/years with tabs crashing. I just figured it was my particular combination of installed extensions and the websites I frequented because certain sites tended to crash tabs pretty often (e.g., HomeDepot.com), while others didn't (e.g., Lowes.com). However, I'm working more hours per day on my PC and have had the app crash multiple times in one day so I figure it's time to try fixing it. So... I made sure that Windows, FF, and my device drivers are up to date. I ran two separate malware/virus scans. The only third-party modules loading are from Intel (it's an Intel CPU and graphics adapter). I ran FF in Troubleshooting Mode, and the tab crashes continued, as well as an app crash. I have four crash report IDs from that event; I am sure it's these four because the Extensions tabs report "No extensions were installed." Three are out-of-memory, one is EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION_READ.

  • * 9d98d242-5b2e-421e-8b12-1e0c00241005

I ran MemTest86 and it didn't find any memory hardware issues.

Since Troubleshooting Mode didn't reveal a misbehaving extension, do I still need to "Refresh Firefox"? Does anyone have suggestions for a next step? Thanks.

This is another moment where I have to post through my Mac Monterey when the problem is on Window 10 64-Bit. This problem surfaces when there is an update available to either program, though it seems like most times, not every time. Currently there is one available for Firefox that does not download. Previously the download installed on its own when this happened. I have shut down and restarted the system at least three times. At the last time I restarted in Safe Mode With Networking. It detected the update but would neither download nor check for updates. The message read to reinstall the new version. Is there any way to fix this updating problem once and for all? It is peculiar the Edge does not display this behavior. Right now what tabs I had open froze; so I had to use this system to post with Firefox for Mac Monterey. Thanks in advance.

Firefox is already my PC browser, I guess that I have had it as my default for over ten years now. Has the new Firefox cookie protection just announced by Mozilla already been added to my Firefox or will that happen at the next auto update? Or is there some action I need to take to download this update to my browser? Thank you

Severn Valley RailCams With increasing severity, over the last few weeks I find that Firefox repeatedly hangs up when viewing one of these Railcams.. I have tried a few things to remedy this, none of which work, the hang-up occurs with the rotating circle, between 1 to a few mins after starting. This does not happen with any other video viewer, eg Youtube, or other Railcam. It does not happen at all in Chrome and yesterday I was using this for 4-5 hours! I have tried disabled add-on, no difference, clearing the data Cache, no difference.. In addition, on 3 or 4 occasions the Windows 10 PC freezes completely and I have to reboot.. ! unheard of! And, this also occurs on my Dell laptop under the same circumstances...

I have attached a screenshot of the problem with the SVr Kidderminster camera, see below, this was after viewing for something like 1-2 mins and, _very_ occasionally, this has caused a complete PC freeze and a reboot is necessary ..

Any idea whats going on?

If you add a proxy (manual) to firefox, you can also put in exemption for which domains the proxy should not be used. And from the examples that are shown, you might think it is also possible to add ip-address-range like 192.168.1.0/24. But this does not really work. Even when your servers are in the network 192.168.1.0/24, the proxy still we be used. It is only working if you add your domain e.g. .mydomain.local.

New version (131.0) installed 10/3-10/4/2024. Los Angeles Times newspaper online suddenly won't work. I have been getting daily delivery of the Los Angeles Times newspaper for many years. It has always worked perfectly with Firefox up until today -- the day immediately following the overnight install of version 131.0 for the Mac on my computer. The daily edition comes with an email (gmail) that has a graphic depicting the front page of the edition and a notation that says something like "Read today's paper", which you can then do by clicking on the graphic of the front page. The app gives you an option of viewing either one or two pages at a time and allows you to turn pages by clicking on arrows on either the left or right edge of the screen. The reader can then navigate on the page by just grabbing the page with a click and hold. You can also select any article on the page by clicking on that article, which makes it appear in a window that works like a PDF of the article. You can also click on a copy icon to create a text copy of the article which you can copy and paste into a Word (or other word processing document). So I hope you will FIX YOUR APPLICATION.
