Soluție aleasă

in order to diagnose the issue, can you please launch firefox in safemode once and see if the error message is occuring there too. if not, then please try disabling all of your extensions in tools > addons > extensions, restart the browser and reenable them one-by-one in order to find out what has caused this (a restart might be necessary after each step).

i'm not sure if i understood this correctly, but if the whole browser crashed you might also be able to retrieve a crash id, that would help use in troubleshooting the issue better.

hi madperson! thanks for your prompt reply.

how to know it? i did not update any extension before it crashed, unless it was automatically.

I guess it can be due to Zotero...do you know this ? But do not know if I can uninstall it since I have info inthere.
