This is not a complete freeze, because I can quit or close tabs with keyboard. Tabs cannot be closed and new ones cannot be opened. Quitting and starting up again frees up tab use.

Start Firefox in Diagnose Firefox issues using Troubleshoot Mode to check if one of the add-ons is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).

  • Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
