Hello community, I've been having this weird problem lately... Well as I try to open Firefox an error window shows up saying that Firefox chrashed and that it has to be restarted, as soon as I restart Firefox, the message shows again, and only after few tries I'm allowed to start Firefox in safe mode by clicking on a button showing up on another error window. I already have tried to: -Disinstall and reinstall Firefox -Disabling all plugins (won't allow me to manage extensions in safe-mode tough) -Deleting the *-journal files

Any ideas? :'(

P.s.: I'm running Firefox 20.0 on Windows 7, the problem showed up really unexpectedly, didn't install anything new

See:

In Firefox Safe mode these changes are effective:

  • all extensions are disabled
  • the default theme is used (no persona)
  • userChrome.css and userContent.css are ignored
  • the default toolbar layout is used (localstore-safe.rdf)
  • the Javascript JIT compiler is disabled
  • hardware acceleration is disabled
  • plugins are not affected
  • preferences are not affected

Try to disable hardware acceleration in Firefox.

If you have submitted crash reports then please post the IDs of one or more crash reports that have this format:

  • bp-xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx

You can find the IDs of the submitted crash reports on the about:crashes page.
