Firefox crashes
Firefox crashes randomly but in all instances not long after launching. I might get to a website of two before it crashes the tab(s) but it will do it most times. This occurrs in safe mode as well and after restarting the pc as well.

It looks like Firefox is running out of available RAM and so is crashing. How much RAM does your computer have? I'd suggest making sure you have at least 4GB.
You can also install the 32 bit version of Firefox, download it from https://www.mozilla.org/firefox/all/. I'm not sure it'll help but you can try.
hi, please see if the following improves the situation: go to the firefox menu ≡ > options > privacy & security panel and under permissions check the setting to prevent accessibility services from accessing your browser and restart firefox once.
also, in case you have custom settings in regards to the page file of your system, please reset them to the os' defaults: https://lifehacker.com/5426041/understanding-the-windows-pagefile-and-why-you-shouldnt-disable-it
