As soon as I start Firefox and attempt to go to a website, a box appears and tells me that we're sorry, Firefox has had a problem and crashed. I have removed Firefox and reloaded it. It still crashes. What do I need to do?

Chosen solution

Try to start Firefox in Safe Mode by holding down the Shift/Options key to see if that helps.

Try to start Firefox with the about:blank page by creating a copy of the current Firefox desktop shortcut. Add a space and -url "about:blank" to the target field in the Properties.

Please follow the steps below to provide us crash IDs to help us learn more about your crash.

  1. Enter about:crashes in the Firefox address bar and press Enter. A Submitted Crash Reports list will appear, similar to the one shown below.
  2. Copy the 5 most recent Report IDs that start with bp- and then go back to your forum question and paste those IDs into the "Post a Reply" box.

Note: If a recent Report ID does not start with bp- click on it to submit the report.

(Please don't take a screenshot of your crashes, just copy and paste the IDs. The below image is just an example of what your Firefox screen should look like.)
