Hi cor-el Thanks for the information My Crash Report is bp-0efbe735-5cc9-4d4e-b9d5-0c27e2150124
Start Firefox in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem.
- Switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance
- Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe Mode start window

- https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Troubleshooting+extensions+and+themes
You can try to disable OMTC and leave hardware acceleration in Firefox enabled.
- about:config page: layers.offmainthreadcomposition.enabled = false
You can use this button to go to the currently used Firefox profile folder:
- Help > Troubleshooting Information > Profile Directory: Show Folder (Linux: Open Directory; Mac: Show in Finder)
- http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox
You can try to disable hardware acceleration in Firefox.
- Tools > Options > Advanced > General > Browsing: "Use hardware acceleration when available"
You need to close and restart Firefox after toggling this setting.
I tried in safe mode, then too it crashed
Though in safe mode it stayed on for some more time (may me 30mins more) then in normal mode I tried disabling Use Hardware Acceleration, then too it crashed
What are the other methods I'm a little confused could you please help It keeps crashing after every 45mins
Does having multiple tabs open create this crash? I have seen surfing Facebook and watching Youtube videos the crashes are more often (I could be wrong here but that's what I have noticed) Also when i try and check to see if my plugins are up-to date It just does not check, attached is the snapshot
