Firefox crashes during shutdown
Firefox crashes during shutdown and is very slow to start up. Sometimes it hangs. Same problem occurs in safe mode. Tried "no hardware acceleration" but problem persists. Tried Firefox refresh but problem persists. Would like to prevent the shutdown crash and speed up the overall performance.

This means that something in Firefox is not closing properly.
The crash report does not show what the problem is.
Start Firefox in Safe Mode {web Link} by holding down the <Shift>
(Mac=Options) key, and then starting Firefox.
A small dialog should appear. Click Start In Safe Mode (not Refresh).
Is the problem still there?
