What can I do to prevent Firefox from hanging when I leave after having tried all the suggested fixes?

Running Windows 7 with all updates. Starting with version 29.0.1 of Firefox, Firefox often hangs when I go out. When you restart Firefox, I get "Firefox is already running but is not responding... ». I then have to manually stop firefox.exe * 32 front I can restart the program. I applied all of the suggested fixes (disable all addons, extension and themes), and made sure I can delete the parent.lock file. Also noted the closing delay mentioned with Vista user. I have the error message occur several minutes after the release of Firefox, although I have often used the X button at the top of the right screen to exit Firefox always without any problems in the past. The function of this key has changed too?
In any case, I use now exit the menu button drop down, but still have the problem of blocking.

This is a bug in Firefox 29 where Firefox crashes out when the setting 'clear history of Firefox closing' is selected.

If you use custom settings for history in your Firefox Privacy options and selecting 'Clear history of Firefox closing', remove the checkbox. See this article for more details:

Privacy, historical settings of navigation and-no-track

  • IMSLib.DLL error persists... Have you tried all the suggestions from the forum

    I keep getting the error "installation problem: IMSLib not found.» Services of Acrobat will not work. »

    This is a new purchase, download and installation of Acrobat Pro DC on a desktop PC Windows 7 x 64. I get no error during installation. I don't have Photoshop or other applications of CC. I tried all the suggestions in the previous thread on this issue (installation problem: IMSLIB not found.)  Services of Acrobat will not work.). I tried approaches include (full restart of Windows between any stage remove/install):

    (1) uninstalled old already installed versions of Acrobat 9 Pro and Acrobat Reader. A ran the CC Adobe cleaner in older versions (CS) and new (DC).

    (2) uninstalled all other Adobe software on the computer (for example: Flash)

    (2) remove all Adobe directories under common files and user AppData

    (3) reinstalled CC and Acrobat Pro DC from scratch (I have now done the uninstall/reinstall 3 times)

    (4) reinstalled Adobe Application Manager

    (5) Ran 'Repair Installation' inside DC Acrobat Pro

    (6) has the regsvr32 - you and i - to rejigger the registry options. It reported an error the file of the DLL.

    (7) IMSLib.DLL manually copied from Adobe installation to System32 and Windows SysWOW64 directories directories (I tried all 3 of the different versions in the underlying directories... "They have different file sizes).

    Nothing changes the symptom. Opening DC Pro or CD player gives the dll error and none of the expanded services.

    Please notify. I need to get this working soon or request a refund, and install a competing product. Files PDF is an essential part of my work.

    This closing with resolution. I changed my default directory install to C:/Program Files (x 86) and reinstalled. Everything worked correctly, no more error IMSLib.

    This should be worked by the team of system development at a given time. You can't assume an installation directory with no ability to customize or change the location. Many people use small OS disk partitions and need to install apps in other directories or drives.

  • Why can't I sign into my gmail? I tried all the suggestions posted including clear cookies and cache.

    I tried all the options on this site and nothing works. I can get my mail on google chrome and internet explore, but not on firefox, WHY?

    It is possible that the cookies.sqlite file that stores the cookies is corrupted if clear cookies does not work.

    Rename (or delete) cookies.sqlite (cookies.sqlite.old) and delete the other files of cookies as cookies.sqlite - journal in the profile folder of Firefox in the case where the cookies.sqlite file has been corrupted.

  • Startup menu appears intermittently and then turn off again several times. Cannot work all menu visible. What can I do to prevent it from happening?

    I'm not a computer Wizard so I hope to give you the correct details.

    The botton 'Start' on the left side is very used to activate the menu.  However, I am not pressing the windows key on my keyboard or by clicking the button on the screen with my mouse.  The problem is intermittent, but extremely frustrating, because when the menu pops up that I can not go on with my work.  By clicking the button on the left on the desk with my mouse can temporarily solve the problem, BUT the menu appears again a few seconds later.

    Sometimes when using any program or watching a dvd. Sometimes it stops for a while, but just at the point where I think that it has sorted itself, he returned.

    I ran Windows Defender and a registry cleaner - I'm about to try AVG anti virus.  If this does not work, I'll go out of my mind.

    I hope there is a simple solution to this... Help, please!

    I spoke with Neelabh Sinha Microsoft based in New Delhi.  Several minutes of trashing the problem, we discussed the possibility of RF interference with my Microsoft wireless keyboard or mouse as a signal low resistance warning came a few times.  I discovered that, even if I did not use the keyboard wireless at the time, he was placed in storage always batteries.  Unknown to me, a book had fallen against the keyboard.  Despite my my laptop in a downstairs room far away from the location of the keyboard, the receiver picked up stray signals from it.  I was using a mouse without a wire with the receiver close to your computer and laptop was tested almost all the signal received from the keyboard.  However, some of the signal got through and are in conflict with the orders that I was typing on the laptop.  Standard keyboard strokes became orders of service and it is these conflicts which were manifested on the screen.

    Thus, in the future, when you use don't not my wireless keyboard, I'll make sure that the batteries are taken to avoid a recurrence of my problem!

    I appreciate the time taken by the Member of the community who responded to my question.  I'm embarrassed that the cause was so stupid and banal, and yet he had such a profound effect.

    Just to say that the keyboard and mouse Set wireless Microsoft performed more than adequately. Perhaps too well...!  Top marks to Microsoft to make such a competent piece of kit that works even when separated by walls, a spread of two-story between transmitter and receiver.

    All points must go to miss who thought that "outside the box" to identify the likely cause of my problem.  Respect!

  • I tried all the suggestions you and RoboForm gave, can not remove the old version of RoboForm, nor install again.

    I have Firefox 20.0.1 and using RoboForm 7.8.7.5, who had also stopped working and so I upgraded RoboForm to 7.8.8.5 and it will not load even on Firefox, and I'm not able to delete the 7.8.7.5 either. I decided that I can't use Firefox until you solve the problem. I will not use password manager you have in the browser because I don't think that it is safe.

    Also, I would recommend my friends who use RoboForm to also avoid Firefox at the moment.

    You and RoboForm claim that there is a delete button in Firefox, there is no button with Roboform. I even turned off 7.8.7.5 but it will only allow me to activate, I can't delete this version.

    Some Firefox problems can be solved by performing a clean reinstall. This means that you remove Firefox program files, and then reinstall Firefox. Please follow these steps:

    Note: You can print these steps or consult them in another browser.

    1. Download the latest version of Firefox from http://www.mozilla.org office and save the installer to your computer.
    2. Once the download is complete, close all Firefox Windows (click on quit in the file menu or Firefox).
    3. Remove the Firefox installation folder, which is located in one of these locations, by default:
      • Windows:

        • C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox
        • C:\Program Files (x 86) \Mozilla Firefox
      • Mac: Delete Firefox in the Applications folder.
      • Linux: If you have installed Firefox with the distribution-based package manager, you must use the same way to uninstall: see Install Firefox on Linux. If you have downloaded and installed the binary package from the Firefox download page, simply remove the folder firefox in your home directory.
    4. Now, go ahead and reinstall Firefox:
      1. Double-click on the downloaded Setup file and go through the steps in the installation wizard.
      2. Once the wizard is completed, click to open Firefox directly after clicking the Finish button.

    The report please come back shortly.

  • 'Most visited' disappeared from the My Places bar. I tried all the suggestions about re: config, drag-and - drop, etc. Nothing works. Thoughts?

    The 'most visited' tabs and an RSS feed I use have disappeared from my places bar. They now sit under 'Favorites' and are very annoying.

    I followed all of the suggestions of Mozilla and other sources about the topic: config. Nothing works. I tried to drag and drop 'most visited' return to the places bar, but this does not work, either.

    Can someone please give me a solution?

    It is a complete fake! We have nothing of this going - please do a check of malware:

    Sometimes a problem with Firefox can be a result of malware installed on your computer, you may not be aware of.

    You can try these free programs to search for malicious software that work with your existing anti-virus software:

    Microsoft Security Essentials is a good permanent antivirus for Windows 7/Vista/XP, if you do not already have one.
