This article only applies to users of Firefox on Windows.
Directly after the update to Firefox 57.0.1, users with G DATA security software running on their system might be impacted by Firefox crashing repeatedly during startup.
Affected G DATA users should make sure that they have the latest available version of their security product installed, including all available signature updates.
As a temporary workaround, affected users can also disable the BankGuard component within their G DATA product:
- Go to the Settings panel of your G DATA product by clicking the cogwheel button in the user interface.
- Go to > in the G DATA Settings panel.
- Disable the BankGuard browser protection setting and click .
Afterwards try launching Firefox again.
