Is there an easy fix for Firefox Crashing? Seems like since the last update. Appears worse when first starting up. I cleared cookies, cache, history etc...

What's your definition of "crashing"? People use the term for everything and we really need a more definitive description of the problem.

@89135It might help if you said what kind of device you're using. I'm on a desktop computer using Firefox right now and no problems.

@gadgetgal613 Firefox closes or quits unexpectedly and the Mozilla Crash Reporter appears. I just click on Restart Firefox ..Sometimes that works and sometimes it goes back to Crash mode..Right now it is working okay but crashed about 4 times this morning when starting up...It has crashed in the afternoon also so just not at start up

Try another browser like Chrome, Edge, Brave or some other generic browser like Samsung browser.

If I remember correctly Firefox has an option somewhere (maybe settings?) to reset to original status or something like that. Try it if you can.

@89135Just checked, and I'm on version 131.0 too. Maybe I should thank my lucky stars that everything is ok here. Hope you're able to figure out what's wrong on your end.
