Firefox crashes when not in use and must be forced to quit.

The program works fine while I use it actively. When it is in the background when you use another application, or when I wake the computer from sleep mode and rise of Firefox, the program is the much death/insensitive. This phenomenon began about two weeks ago. I turned all the modules that have been acquired in the last six months to try to eliminate conflicts, but the program still freezes when not active at least once a day.

You don't have a load of addons that can cause weird problems.

You could try safe mode and see if it works there?

  • Firefox crashes when the flash is used.

    Firefox crashes when the flash is used at all.
    I've checked everything and it is only with flash 10.1.53.64 on the tree

    == a site using flash is open

    I use Windows 7 and I have the same problem. When I went to 3.6.4, Firefox would be to lock up whenever I tried to play any flash video. I have tried several sites and it would lock up every time I have to close by the Task Manager. I've updated the Flash Player and even tried uninstalling and reinstalling, nothing could solve this problem.

    I read that they supposedly separated the plugins like flash in a separate procedure to keep firefox crash if flash does, but apparently they didn't do this right. I had to go back to Firefox 3.6.3 worm and flash works without any problem in this version. Seems that firefox must correct 3.6.4 since it seems he's messed up video flash for many users, if not most. It is useless if it can't play flash since almost all Web sites use this format!

  • Firefox crashes when you use Google as startup page

    Firefox crashes and gives me an error message general she had to close for some reasons.
    This only happens when I use Google as my home page.
    If I use another Web site as startpage all works well and I can go to Google from here and everything works.
    In short: FF hangs at startup only when you use Google as starpage, I see the Google page briefly and then crashes FF.
    I would really like any solution because I have always used Google start page and you want to keep it this way without having to start with i.e. altavista and go to google from there.

    This seems to be related to the new "doodles" with Olympic events. I hope that the problem will end this week.

  • Firefox crashes when you open no matter what context menu - Save as download window, window options, etc.

    This is the third time I had this problem with firefox...

    Firefox crashes when you try to upload images, files, etc. right click context menu opens (with bookmark, save the page, save the image, options etc) but after selecting an option, save the image or another, the real save as dialog box does not open and firefox crashes.

    say many pages open the download and clear history... I can't do that, trying to open the download hangs there, too. like, trying to open any what other dialogues.

    the first time that this has happened, the only solution I could find was a total wipe and re-install (simple uninstall/reinstall didn't work... it had to be weeded manually in the registry).
    the second time that I got just to rebuild my system, so I just do a fresh install on a fresh OS.

    This time I can't seem to solve the problem of uninstalling and re - install...

    Help?

    discovered what he was doing!

    After trying safe mode of firefox and safe mode of windows and any number of other things I gave a little upward for a bit there, but I woke up from a dream in the middle of the night thinking ' based on the conduct in question, it * must * be something in the shell that is the cause. " (Sorry, I dream of geek).

    so I grabbed a shell viewer editor - ShelleExView (http://www.nirsoft.net/utils/shexview.html) (had to use a yucky, any browser to download) and gave him a race.

    I have listed all the extensions of the date they were added as a clsid and trying of think back to when the problem started... about a month or so, after a new system, reinstall. and through a little trial and error disabling, I found the culprit.

    It is an overlay Manager icon set by what is called WagerLogic. After looking into the company's name, I have to assume this was related to one of the annoying "just lost real money on our virtual casino" pop-ups that infest the net nefariously scenic for an easy mark as orphaned Dickens.

    I disabled it and voila! Firefox is still in full function.

Updated plugins, crossed of troubleshooting on the Help menu, I tried safe mode. All to nothing does not. IE works fine.

    After reviewing all services and startup programs using msconfig, I've isolated the problem to a conflict with Dell Media Center in starting. I deleted the software (preinstalled on your laptop) since I never use anyway, re-enabled the acceleration hardware Flash and deleted the line mode protected in the file flash cfg.

    Thanks for all your help - could not have corrected it without you.

  • Firefox crashes when I access my modules page.

    Firefox crashes when I access my modules page. I have to use the Task Manager to unlock it. Some addons (AdBlock) still work. Others (NetVideoHunter) do not have. I would like to delete all the Add-ons and to start over, to see if it makes a difference, but when I access my modules page press the button 'Delete', FireFox crashes - so what am I supposed to do? I love Firefox because it is simple and usually without glitch - until now.

    Cor - el will no doubt come with suggestions. I will list the accident report Details incase they help someone. The accident occurred when a component associated Windows is in use. Have you ensured you have no background task running, and no unnecessary plugins Firefox are running.

    No reason to expect to be directly related, but a previous incident with the same signature took place when bookmarks were used, and the solution in this instance was:

    I found out that an option in Microsoft File Explorer caused the crash.
To solve this:
- Go to "Organize"
- Choose "Folder and search options"
- uncheck "Automatically expand to current folder"

     Now Firefox won't crash again!
