Hi   !
You could turn off Multiprocess (e10s) and see if that'll make a difference :
Type in the address bar about:config (promise to be careful, if asked) Type and search for the preferences : browser.tabs.remote.autostart and set it's value to false browser.tabs.remote.autostart.2 and set it's value to false

Note: the exact name of the preference may vary, but it will start with browser.tabs.remote.autostart

If the above doesn't do the trick :
If you have any anti-virus software installed,   such as Kaspersky, AVAST, Bitdefender : try and disable it   (for now)   and see if that makes a difference.
