Is it the reader that is crashing, or Firefox?

Have you tried a reinstall? Adobe Reader Version 2015.007.20033

No it did not solve my problem everytime I try to do something that uses adobe it says that I need Adobe Reader and it is already installed every time I tried on IE and it works so it must be firefox but IE doesn't work good for me at all its too slow and it likes freezes so that is why I switched to Firefox it worked fine on Firefox about 2 weeks ago then it just started so it isn't Adobe it is firefox I might have to switch to Google Chrome if this issue isn't fixed Thank You
