  Click on the following link, click on "what's new in Firefox 3.6.4. The first 2 paragraphs is a brief explanation of this plugin - container.exe is designed to do. Currently, Windows and Linux only, it isolates Adobe Flash, Apple Quicktime or Microsoft Silverlight plugins of the main browser, so that if one of those accidents of plug-ins, your browser not everything breaks down. This was done because of the large number of accidents caused by plug-ins. Plans are to add more plug-ins in subsequent updates to Firefox.

• Why plugin - container.exe crash so often during the closing of PDF files?

  When I load multiple PDF files in Firefox to check their content for the errors one by one, closing a tab PDF to reveal another tab PDF very often causes plugin - container.exe planting, which means I have to reload each tab PDF remaining to display the remaining files. This of course defeated the purpose to open more than one at the time and adds about 5 times because the number of clicks to the whole process because I erase the mistake and reload each page, then it might happen again or not. It produced whenever I close a PDF file, but about 1/4 times.

  I know that I have two versions of Acrobat installed (9.5.5 of Acrobat and Reader 11.0.10) and therefore two Firefox plugins, but for the record that this same thing happening on other computers that just have Reader or simply Acrobat, this isn't a matter of conflicting plugins. Although I noticed that you are not allowed to disable one or the other - a disable disables both. As a first step, it does not appear, but if you reload the plugins page, you will see that the two are actually off.

  Windows coughs following error report when the plugin - container.exe grave failure, but Firefox says nothing, I guess because the plugin-container is a stand-alone application:

• plugin - container.exe sucks mass memory and makes my computer lag, how I stop it all to appear because he appeared only with the download of the latest firefox?

  I want to keep the plugin - container.exe to come...

  This has happened

  A few times a week

  == I downloaded the latest firefox

  I have the same problem with Firefox 3.6.6 except that it also consumes massive amounts of CPU during the race. This version also adds a new process on your system. I am running XP and in the beginning I tried to disable some plug-ins. Always consumed too much memory. I went back to version 3.6 and the new process went, and the CPU consumption is way down. Something is wrong with the latest version of Firefox, I never saw behave this way. Revert to a previous version (Filehippo) and you will see the difference.

• plugin - container.exe * 32 is a drain on resources

  When I run Firefox I find that the "plugin - container.exe * 32" is a drain on the resources of my computer. Is there a way to disable this? I understand that its purpose is to help if Firefox crashes, but because my Firefox crashes almost never I feel just that it's a drain on my system (11, 820K of RAM) resources.

• Stop or disable "plugin - container.exe".

  I am running XP on a laptop that originally had Vista which didn't work too well and 26.0 Firefox, update. I have "Add-ons" Adblock Plus 2.4.1 Advanced System Care 1.0 and NoScript 2.6.8.12

  Since the update to 26.0 that damnable "plugin-container.exe" was slowing down my surfing the web and I'm constantly ending the process in Task Manager. I want to disable or remove it completely with instructions easy to read - not some of the 5-page "mumbo-jumbo" I read other "solutions". It has slowed me down and irritated me the point back to I-E.

  He has to go or I go.

  Hi RadRon, as its name suggests, plugin - container.exe is used to run plugins. It was created at the time of Firefox 3.6.4 to isolate the firefox.exe plugins because they were responsible for a large percentage of crashes of Firefox. Placing them in the plugin - container.exe prevened misbehaved plugins to take down the entire session in Firefox (at least, in theory it should do).

  So going back to your question of what might have caused your previous problems with plugin - container.exe, it was probably a problem with the relevant plugin, and most likely guilty is Flash. But given that the error has disappeared, it is difficult to speculate on the confluence of circumstances that could have been responsible, or fixed what other solution could help.

• What are the preferences of ff-related plugin - container.exe in its new version of ff? Specifically, I would like to change them all: config to disable plugin - container.exe

  I did it with a previous version of ff by changing the values of these preferences: dom.ipc.plugins.enabled to true

  DOM. Fake IPC.plugins.Enabled.npctrl.dll

  DOM. Fake IPC.plugins.Enabled.npqtplugin.dll

  DOM. Fake IPC.plugins.Enabled.npswf32.dll

  DOM. True IPC.plugins.Enabled.nptest.dll

  dom.ipc.plugins.timeoutSecs 45

  After I installed ff on my laptop today I can not find the .dll preferences. And plugin - container.exe continues to torment me. For me, that's the only problem with ff since the 7 update. It boggles me as to why you have not managed to get rid of this thing.

  To disable the crash protection, go to about: config and all preferences from dom.ipc.plugins.enabled set to false. (It is possible that your browser has only this entry preferably without any additions.) This will prevent the process of "plugin-container" of race and all plugins will run within the process of Firefox. (from Disabling_crash_protection )

  Thank you

• WhatWhere is the plug-incontainer? happened to the plugin container? He disappeared with the latest version and now firefox crashes several times a day.

  I do not see the plugin container in the task manager of Windows since the last update of Firefox and now FF freezes several times per day (since the previous update, before yesterday). It takes several minutes after that I see this until it thaws, and it is faster the "end task" and restart Firefox to wait. This most often seems to happen when the computer has been idle for a certain time, rather than when I use it.

  Be sure to let the process of plugin-container in the firewall.

• "Plugin - container.exe has stopped working" error during installation of Firefox 36.0 via SCCM if Firefox is open during installation.

  When installing Firefox 36.0 via SCCM (System Center Configuration Manager), if the previously installed version of Firefox is open during the new installation, an error, "Plugin - container.exe has stopped working. A problem caused the blocking of the program works correctly. Please close the program. This problem occurs only if Firefox is open during the installation, otherwise the installation is successful. Note: I have included a taskkill to 'firefox.exe' in my installation script to stop Firefox runs.

  There are new logic in Firefox 36 monitor to stop crashes while the Mozilla Crash Reporter can capture data. This could have the effect of killing her task, I'm not sure. Maybe you have to kill plugin - container.exe before firefox.exe? I'm not familiar with SCCM and it might have a more graceful way to close an application.

• Why plugin - container.exe shows the process when I disabled all extensions and plug-ins?

  Firefox has been slow, locking and become insensitive since 27.0, I now 28.0 installed, but no difference. I suspect the plugin container could cause or contribute to this. You kindly told me why it is still in progress when everything is turned off, I would like to block. In addition, how comes I can watch a YouTube video when the Flash is turned off? I have the original - this plug-in is disabled - view, and then the video begins to play?

  It is possible that the HTML5 Media Player is used to play videos.
  
  If the Flash player would be the you get the context menu Flash Player if you right click on the video player.

  Start Firefox in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/tools > Modules > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is the cause of the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/tools > Modules > appearance).

• Adobe Flash Player either in the plugin-container?

  Hello

  I updated Firefox to 13.0 and FlashPlayer to 11.3 r300.

• I changed my apple ID and password user name and it changed on 3 of my devices. I have a 4th device, which still has the old user name and password and I am not able to change it. I can't restore the phone to factory settings unless I can connect.

  OK, just to clarify: you always use the same Apple ID, but you changed its name, correct?

  If this is the case, you can go to iCloud.com or use find my iPhone app (free on the App Store) of one of your devices to remove the 4th icloud.
