Firefox (even under safe mode) will suddenly close, and has no error messages. Windows event viewer finds the following:

Faulting application name: firefox.exe, version: 67.0.0.7075, time stamp: 0x5cdded92 Faulting module name: PayloadRestrictions.dll, version: 10.0.17763.1, time stamp: 0x7885c70a Exception code: 0xc0000409 Fault offset: 0x000000000003b614 Faulting process id: 0x4a34 Faulting application start time: 0x01d5152fb3769a95 Faulting application path: C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe Faulting module path: C:\Windows\SYSTEM32\PayloadRestrictions.dll Report Id: 38fe26fe-c424-44c1-9547-e40a78db85a3 Faulting package full name: Faulting package-relative application ID:

This continued to happen even after reinstalling Windows 10 (1809) from scratch (full install including reformatting OS disk). It began happening after updating from 1803 -> 1809 but may be just coincidence.
