Why firefox crashes my pc unexpectedly?

I have a Toshiba laptop to windows 8. I have always used firefox for a year, ever since I got it, it's my choice of web browsers, but today, something has gone wrong. I went to open firefox and it crashed to the point where I couldn't even open the Task Manager to end the process. I had to stop the evil pc a number of times and turn turn it on again to understand it crashes only when I try to open firefox.

I thought I would just uninstall Mozilla and re - install and would solve this problem, but this isn't the case. When I tried to reinstall firefox, everything seems perfect until there finishes the installation and tries to open the browser... and I'm back to the same problem... I literally cut my computer because it blocks it.

I tried other programs on my PC and it seems to be only Mozilla who has this problem.

Probably because the "update" installed web cam Cisco without a word of warning. My front door is not quite down, it STOPS just WORK, so I have to use the Task Manager to close. Why use FF when it's not better than IE?

Have not been able to find a way to get rid of the add-on that I did not and would NEVER have consented to.

    Hello Mike.

    It is possible that you have a problem with some Add on Firefox which is an obstacle to the normal behavior of your Firefox. Have you tried to disable all add-ons (just to see) to see if Firefox goes back to normal?

    Whenever you have a problem with Firefox, whatever it is, you must make sure that it is not caused by one (or more) of your installed modules, whether an extension, a theme or a plugin. To do this easily and cleanly, start Firefox in safe mode (remember to select disable all add-ons when you start safe mode). If the problem goes away, you know that it's an add-on. Disable them all in normal mode and allow them one by one until you find the source of the problem. See this article for more information on troubleshooting extensions and theme and this one for plugins.

    If you need help with one of your modules, you will need to contact the author.

  • Why firefox built-in PDF Viewer makes windows 10 crashes

    I have a computer with Windows 10. For about two to three months from now, from time to time, my computer/windows crashes when I open or save a PDF in Firefox, which is extremely upsetting.
    I just found out a few days ago that Firefox no longer uses the adobe reader plugin, but uses rather its own PDF Viewer built-in. When I changed the setting to use the external adobe reader software to open / download the pdf files, it seems that my computer no longer crashes.
    So my questions are: why the bult - in the PDF Viewer gives windows crash 10? Will be corrected this problem and when? and finally, why Firefox forces to use its own built-in PDF Viewer when it cannot work properly with windows 10?
    This was the most overwhelming problem that I had with my computer for a long time!

  • Firefox crashes almost every time that I try to attach a document. Why?

    I just had a new PC from Dell XPS Dimension w/Win 8.1. She doesn't have Firefox, so I downloaded (version 29.0.1).

    Almost every time that I try to attach a document, for example, a photo or other file, Firefox crashes. The accident occurred when I double-click on the directory or folder that contains the document I want to join. I presented in reports half a dozen incidents in recent days.

    Instead of double-click, I tried everything just clicking once on the button that appears when I OPEN request to attach a document. This reduces the frequency of accidents, but did not eliminate them.

    Accidents that occurred when I was trying to attach a document to an email in yahoo mail. The accidents have also occurred when I was trying to add a photo to an article I wrote for Examiner.co using their publishing tool.

    I just changed from Windows XP. DO Firefox crashed when I tried to do in XP.

    I tried to reproduce the problem in Internet Explorer 11, which came with my PC. I was not able to reproduce the problem with the Explorer.

    OK, so a couple of days, I got on Facebook to play one of my favorite games. As soon as the game started to load, Firefox crashed.

I tried reset Firefox which has been mentioned in a past post but it didn't work until I tried to put a new design on the top of my browser.

    Can someone explain why it is only on a Facebook app that makes it crash and how to stop it? Please and thank you!
