Firefox starts up slow after a crash

more options

I've noticed that firefox starts up very slow after a crash.

I tried a few things like disabling restore tabs and disabling session restore after a crash, still no luck

Anything else I can try? Does this need to be fixed in Firefox? Let me know.

And just in case it helps, my Firefox crashes when I try to share the entire screen on Google Meet

Try downloading another copy of Firefox, run it from the folder and see if you have the same issue. https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all/#product-desktop-release
