Anyone having trouble with Firefox?

Scooby Doo — Fri, 07 Jun 2019 15:49:38 GMT

It won't load my websites. Tab comes up that says it crashed and send them a report. So I do that to no avail. I can see my history, and it goes there for a second, then I get the crash screen again.

Mine is okay. Have you tried the usual - clean cache, virus scan, disk cleanup, etc.

There was an update 2 days ago. Firefox likes to mess with your computer to force you to do the update. I hate whe they do that.

If you already downloaded the update, then you need to restart your computer.

I have been using Chrome more and more becuse FF annoys me so much.

Two days ago is when it crashed. I guess the update didn't take.

Ditto for me, switched to Chrome about a month ago, very happy, Firefox was causing all kinds of disruptions to my regular online routine

Hmm. I'm reading this on Firefox right now, and haven't done any updates that I'm aware of. Maybe an automatic update was done? In any case, no problem with Firebox for me.

I use Waterfox which is like FF but much better. Never any issues.

FF & Safari <----(never used) are my backup browsers.
