Hi,

I must use IE to even ask this question because Firefox crashes all the time. When I visit this site or gogle maps or YouTube or slack etc.

Following action have been taken: - disabling hardware acceleration in firefox and in Adobe flash player - disabling secure mode in Shockware Flash - cleared all history - disabled all plugins (firefox started in safemode) - uninstalled Firefox and deleted all folders and then reinstalled Firefox to the latest version - latest version of flash player and java are installed - installed the latest video driver

- changed layers.d3d11.disable-warp pref to true 

- installed latest displaylink

nothing seems to solve my problem it also crashed when trying to ask this question, so i had to do it with internet explorer!

I use windows 8.1 pro 64bit on a intel i5 with 16GB RAM

Here are my crashreports: ID Date e0b0eba1-0a7c-4654-95bf-ad2b452f321b 2015-07-22 09:54 bp-9d92ca15-ad6e-4a24-876f-6cf602150722 2015-07-22 09:54 bp-ebdb4cc3-dbe4-4779-a3a3-122bb2150722 2015-07-22 09:52 bp-d23c4fe6-9cde-4198-a3a6-abfd92150722 2015-07-22 09:51 bp-0962b68d-1d5b-4c9f-be96-e76a22150722 2015-07-22 09:51 1a0b8f77-6af0-4f86-b653-8175e5602503 2015-07-22 09:27 bp-b0c8ca62-42a5-4953-8926-0e27b2150722 2015-07-22 09:27 fa29002d-30ea-4072-9a66-0ef449640594 2015-07-22 09:27 2db59972-ecea-4974-ba7b-ebc77b1be04f 2015-07-22 08:29 b06bddb0-5c7b-45bf-8d99-1d32acc1d384 2015-07-22 08:26 bp-16d1390a-9e38-4abb-9f95-455202150722 2015-07-22 08:25 0b223133-f6df-496e-9db1-f7de297f8dfe 2015-07-22 08:25 c7cc8c05-cf2d-49b6-818d-f7b8dbb975fc 2015-07-22 08:22 bp-43171f51-a188-4312-8d90-483622150722 2015-07-22 08:21 4151ee29-69ee-4cdc-8ebe-0ec05b576523 2015-07-22 08:20 308cfbd0-b0d9-431e-a158-1a32c9cc111d 2015-07-22 08:10 2a0d46f6-752f-41b9-9361-71523ef4d07f 2015-07-22 08:09 80128f2e-2afd-4154-9da2-ab338525ce3c 2015-07-22 08:08 3d3ae438-1139-4ce3-957d-c413786dca34 2015-07-22 07:59 da9f2940-3b76-4772-b5b3-9cfb9c6988e8 2015-07-22 07:59 3edc3f90-d9ac-450a-ba57-38cd2aac601d 2015-07-22 07:52 6654b25b-945c-43fd-b558-706d69c0dc29 2015-07-22 07:51 4ca0e3d8-8b11-4910-a7d7-3ee9d75c60f9 2015-07-22 07:50 e372371a-5be9-416e-9d24-963913545c42 2015-07-22 07:38 939e5418-27e3-4860-9a62-6e630ffe3582 2015-07-21 21:44 05513460-c83d-4942-b450-0f4450d8dffd 2015-07-21 20:58 489a1da4-4a59-4aba-bd21-ffde39f5a268 2015-07-21 20:35 b63950b2-6fcc-4e65-8abd-f1f347742d64 2015-07-21 20:12 4ed39f6f-f952-46ba-8418-a8686cefb6b3 2015-07-21 19:52 5021c250-57fd-4d73-8b59-6dc9eee82158 2015-07-21 19:44 c0448397-296e-4c33-9eb4-a7dc9e4cb4c6 2015-07-21 19:42 cace3883-dccf-46d0-b25b-2644464e36f5 2015-07-21 19:40 8f7fbdff-e69b-4654-a129-83fa33c1d900 2015-07-21 19:28 c51d7548-be03-4ce9-9763-56bffef01921 2015-07-21 19:25 bp-f168596f-512d-4101-ad75-407672150721 2015-07-21 19:23 bp-77bbefc9-43f6-418b-a2d8-0f59b2150721 2015-07-21 19:23 6ad4786a-9759-4fa1-a660-85fc728b04e4 2015-07-21 17:19 f9b6184f-9ff5-4099-9411-a12835bb118f 2015-07-21 17:17 5bdfb67e-586c-4262-97ee-012283ac5835 2015-07-21 17:16 d0b3e7da-8620-4434-a12c-022fa431a3cf 2015-07-21 17:08 bp-96899ee0-158d-49ec-98f0-381db2150721 2015-07-21 17:06 bp-46110688-93d1-4e1e-9a7d-3d29d2150721 2015-07-21 17:06 880355fb-9d85-4fec-a412-3252bf1afb4e 2015-07-21 17:04 f2097c1d-3eed-4eeb-9cd2-e9e9266777be 2015-07-21 16:54 9fef5491-f770-4b8b-8fe4-58f7f912ca4e 2015-07-21 15:21 b0ad3db1-11f2-4d56-bbbb-fa6152ad551c 2015-07-21 15:20 c986f49f-fbb6-448d-9fca-b76a85619c49 2015-07-21 15:09 51eb9311-46a5-4ea7-8ee0-f86827f7f4e9 2015-07-21 15:07 44618a72-bb8d-4ccc-badd-09c434a59686 2015-07-21 15:04 48190156-31ba-4afa-bd0b-084ee0ada6cf 2015-07-21 14:42 f9fbfaaf-cbc3-4f23-ab13-b932c14d584a 2015-07-21 14:39 bp-a5c63f89-d8f1-433a-afb1-fe7ab2150721 2015-07-21 14:39 3e6da951-b6d5-473a-a3c0-c11478f93dd2 2015-07-21 14:38 bp-1b18b688-6212-4fdb-aec6-3bd122150721 2015-07-21 14:36

As I mentioned before I already did everything that you say: 1. disable Hardware Acceleration completely 2. disable secure mode in Shockware Flash, 3. disable Hardware Acceleration in flash player/plugin (right click on movie->settings->diseble acceleration), 4. updated nvidia drivers from nvidia.com,

I also saw that skype and dropbox is crashing after this programs start and I don't know if it is connected with firefox issue. I already scaned system by AVG (full version), by adwcleaner_4.208 and Adware-Removal-Tool-v3.9.1 and everything looks fine.

Also system was scaned by System File Check and that was a result: Windows Resource Protection found corrupt files but was unable to fix some of them. Details are included in the CBS.Log %WinDir%\Logs\CBS\CBS.log.
