Firefox crashes

skladder

I have a new Dell Latitude laptop with Windows 7. I downloaded Firefox 7 as my browser. The update settings were set to update Firefox automatically. Firefox updated to Firefox 8 and since then I have had problems with Firefox unexpectedly crashing for apparently no reason. I am not surfing, I am looking at a currently loaded webpage or reading an email and it crashes. I have virtually no add-ons and only a few standard plug ins.

Create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problems.

See "Basic Troubleshooting: Make a new profile":

There may be extensions and plugins installed by default in a new profile, so check that in "Tools > Add-ons > Extensions & Plugins" in case there are still problems.

If that new profile works then you can transfer some files from the old profile to that new profile, but be careful not to copy corrupted files.

If you have submitted Breakpad crash reports then post the IDs of one or more Breakpad crash reports (bp-xxxxxxxx-xxxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx). You can find the IDs of the submitted crash reports on the about:crashes page. You can open the about:crashes page via the location bar, like you open a website.
