So, to clarify, the little window that comes up when you're on youtube and you press the bell for google plus and your replies to comments show is having issues. Basically, if I am scrolling through comments on the right while on a page, it will blank out that little window, or the whole screen will blank. This especially happens if I am typing a comment. Eventually if I've scrolled long enough or made a long comment, everything will stall and fire fox will crash.

I've tried disabling all of my add-on's and none of them are causing it as when all of them were off, it still happens.

I don't have a crash report (or if it stores on the computer, I don't know where to find it) so I will try to make it crash again so I can hopefully copy and paste the error report.

I have a windows 10.

In the address bar, type about:crashes<enter>. Note: If any reports do not have BP in front of the numbers/letters, click it to submit them.

The crash report is several pages of data. We need the report numbers to see the whole report.

Using your mouse, mark the most resent 7 - 10 crash reports, and copy them. Now go to the reply box below and paste them in.
