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.

    Can I start firefox, but when I press on the "+" to open a new tab Firefox closes and the ' Mozilla Crash report ' window opens.
    It seems that firefox it self can open a tab. For example, when I do a new installation, Firefox opens with 2 tabs.

    But when I want to open one that it breaks down and Firefox stops. Its really weird because I've never run this kind of problem before and I don't remember installing anything new until this problem appeared.

    What is the setting of the new tab page?

    You can check the browser.newtab.url pref on the topic: config page.
    You can open the topic: config page via the address bar.
    You can accept the warning and click on "I'll be careful" to continue.

  • Firefox crashes when you open windows close

    Hello

    Since updating to the new Firefox 18.0.1 every time I try to close a few open windows Firefox crashes. I would be reading my mail and after having about 10 open windows I go and check on the X to close the windows. I can close about five to seven of them with no problem but when I have about three of them left Firefox crashes. It is very annoying. I used the Firefox Safe Mode feature and this problem does not happen while in Safe Mode. I don't know what the next step is to fix this problem. Could you please help. Thank you
    

    If there is no problem in safe mode, this means that one of your "Add-ons" are the source of the problem and no 'plugins '. You will need to disable your "Add-ons" one by one to find the culprit. If you have Norton Toolbar 2012/2013 then that may be the one causing the problem if not it is an Add on the origin of the problem.

  • Firefox crashes when you open a blank tab

    Only in the last day, I started having problems with Firefox crashing. In the first hour, the problem only seemed to happen when I went to some websites, such as Gmail or YouTube.

    Now, however, Firefox will crash as soon as I open a new empty tab. I am able to start Firefox, and it will show the page to "re-establish the Session. I can use the menu to open, for example, on: supports, but as soon as I do CMD + T to open a new tab, Firefox will crash.

    This seems to happen even when I start Firefox in safe mode.

    I also tried refreshing Firefox and do a new installation of Firefox, but none of these troubleshooting steps solved the problem.

    Hmm, so I recently had my hard drive is not on me, and I had to reformat and any transfer during a backup of my laptop. Since then, Firefox seems to work very well yet. Thanks for all the help and suggestions!

  • Firefox crashes when you open a new window

    Firefox normally opens and runs until I properly - close all windows. When zero windows are present, and I go back to Firefox and ask for a new window, Firefox crashes. To solve the problem I have to force quit the application, which generates an Apple crash report. Occasionally Firefox has crashed on its own and generated a Mozilla crash report, but this is rare. I tried to disable all add-ons, but that has no effect.

    As long as there is at least one Firefox window opens, the functions of the application normally. This problem only occurs when going from zero windows to stop.

    After checking each Add on, beef Taco has been identified as the cause of the problem.

  • Firefox crashes when you open a windows Explorer window

    I had this problem for 2 days, every time Firefox opens a windows Explorer window it would completely freeze, so every time I have try to save an image, look for a file/folder and so on. The problem started last night, but I had not added Add ons for firefox, plugins or installed new software on my pc. I tried to leave firefox alone when he did freeze to see if it be sorted, but when I went to check on it four hours later it was still frozen.

    My current operating system is Windows Vista, with a fresh install of the latest Firefox. Before I reinstalled it, I tried to launch reseting Firefox in safe mode, and delete my history, which none worked, neither does the new installation solved my problem.

    I just did a scan of my PC virus and it seems that the problem has been corrected, if someone else has this problem, scan your pc for viruses and to get rid of them, I hope that the problem should disappear as it has done for me.

  • Windows Explorer crashes when you open any folder with MPEG2 files.

    WinXP SP3 - When you open any folder with MPEG2 files, windows Explorer crashes. If the folder contains only the MPEG1 files, it opens without a problem. We first thought it was a problem of media player, but we can not even click on a file to open it in media player.

    Hi kathyd,.

    ·        You did changes to the computer before this problem started?

    Since we do not know what is causing this problem, I'd suggest unanimous the event viewer on your computer and check the details in the window logs messages/error codes important related to the question, during the time where this problem occurs and after return.

    Event logs can help you identify and diagnose the source of current system problems or help you predict potential system problems.

    Access the link below to learn how to view and manage the event logs in Event Viewer in Windows XP

    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/308427

    http://www.Microsoft.com/resources/documentation/Windows/XP/all/proddocs/en-us/event_overview_01.mspx?mfr=true

    You can try to start both computers in safe mode and check if it can open the folder where the MPEG 2 files are stored and if windows Explorer crashes. To boot to the desktop in safe mode keep tapping key F8 during restart. Once you see the option to start in safe mode select and press to enter.

    I hope this helps. Post back with the required information.

    Thank you and best regards,
