Firefox keeps freezing my Computer!
This stupid firefox keeps freezing my computer almost every hour! Using Firefox Quantum 61.0.1 (64-bit) for Windows 8.1 64-bit. I am not even trying to play graphic heavy videos, I disabled Adobe Flash Player and any add-ons that might be slowing it down. What happens is I open up a new tab (JUST ONE TAB!) to open a link or a picture or a text website and the page starts loading VERY SLOWLY and then when I try to refresh it or even just do nothing but wait 5-10 min it freezes the screen. I Cannot CLOSE the firefox or do anything.
When I hit CTRL+ALT+DEL and I finally get the Task Manager after 10+min it shows the firefox application has cloned it self multiple times on the task manager using up a shitload of RAM and memory. I am forced to END TASK for the cloned firefox apps and it crashes the open page. Then when I refresh the page it finally loads again. You have to FIRST wait for FIREFOX TO FREEZE YOUR PC, then crash it through Task Manager END TASK command and then finally RELOAD the same damn page!
Was Firefox purposely putting out buggy software or is this some sick joke by the developers? What the fuck are these idiots doing?!

Hi, sorry having issues. Firefox does not clone it self. What you see in the Task Manager is what is suppose to be going on. Firefox is a Multi-process Browser which means it is using all cores of your computer chip as that is Firefox split up doing things like Extensions, Sandbox, Video, and itself.
To be Checked and turned off unless needed for accessibility : Please : go to the Firefox 3 Bar Menu --> Options --> Privacy & Security panel and under Permissions check (put a tick in the box) the setting to Prevent Accessibility Services from accessing your browser.
Multi-Processor Support : Go to the 3 Bar Menu then Options --> General --> Performance and untick everything. change the recommended size lower then see how it runs. Note: 1 = No Multiprocessor = slow again. Try 2 Restart Firefox after making these changes please. Note : Hardware Acceleration is for Video Card, Monitor to see if remain off or to turn back on.
Only Disable as last resort.
Multi-processor Can completely disable it this way in about:config : dom.ipc.processCount set to 1 browser.tabs.remote.autostart = false browser.tabs.remote.autostart.2 = false
Only move to esr if low ram and old system.
Firefox Extended Release Version : Firefox ESR does not come with the latest features but it has the latest security and stability fixes.
If do please :

- https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/export-firefox-bookmarks-to-backup-or-transfer
Since no information on your video card drivers or the extensions your using were provided please do this for Extensions : SAFE MODE
- https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Safe+Mode
- https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Troubleshooting+extensions+and+themes
In Firefox Safe mode these changes are effective:
- all extensions are disabled (about:addons)
- default theme is used (no persona)
- userChrome.css and userContent.css are ignored (chrome folder)
- default toolbar layout is used (file: localstore-safe.rdf)
- Javascript JIT compilers are disabled (prefs: javascript.options.*jit)
- hardware acceleration is disabled (Options > Advanced > General)
- plugins are not affected
- preferences are not affected
TEST''''is issue still there ?
Also Try No Hardware Acceleration
