Firefox crashes with WebGL

Firefox immediately crashes with WebGL. I have tried everything in the forums and nothing has fixed it. Downloaded new drivers for graphics cards, profiles, etc.

We're sorry to hear that your Firefox seems to be crashing when you open it. Please perform the following steps to give us a crash report ID that helps us find out more about the cause of the crash.

  1. On the keyboard, press [Windows] The image "Windows key" does not exist. + [R]. This should bring up a Run window that contains a text field.
  2. In that text field, type %APPDATA% and press Enter. An explorer window should open.
  3. From that explorer window, double-click on the Mozilla folder, then double-click on Firefox and then on Crash reports. Double-click on submitted.
  4. Now, you should see a list of files that contain reports. Go to View > Arrange Icons by > Modified to get the most recent files at the top of the window.
  5. Open the most recent 5 files with a text editor and copy the IDs.
  6. Paste each ID with bp- into the reply window on the forums.

Thanks in advance!

Note: I had to disable WebGL to access your Troubleshooting page in Firefox help. Otherwise it crashed Firefox.

You can try to toggle the layers.d3d11.disable-warp pref to true on the about:config page.

You can try to disable hardware acceleration in Firefox.

  • Tools > Options > Advanced > General > Browsing: "Use hardware acceleration when available"

You need to close and restart Firefox after toggling this setting.

I have tried toggeling layers.d3d11.disable-warp to true, and disabling hardware acceleration. Neither fixed the problem.

Any other ideas? I would love to continue to use Firefox as my browser.
