Firefox unusual crash

Hello,

I updated, uninstall, install, refresh everything; however, it keeps crashing. I can easily repeat the crash by grabbing the one of the open tab and open it as new window.

In safe mode, when i go to option menu to make some suggested changes, it crashes. (I can go to extension, add-on without issue).

Same error don't happen if I use my admin account on windows. I am using a standard user.

It also doesn’t generate a crash log/report. Also, while I was posting this question using Firefox, it freezes when I hit browse screenshot location. I am using chormo which runs without any issues.

This issue started happening I think about 2-3 updates ago(about 1 month or so). It used to work just fine.

Thanks,
