Firefox crashes
Crashes whenever I open a page that has video media such as Facebook or news sites. This is happening since a Windows update on 19 Sep 2017. I am using the latest version of Firefox and it still happens in safe mode. Sometimes only the tab crashes with a "Gah your tab just crashed" message.

This is the only one on the list - it keeps crashing but doesn't generate any new reports

This is all I get when it crashes but doesn't generate a crash report
You can try to set this pref to false on the about:config page.
- media.windows-media-foundation.allow-d3d11-dxva
You can open the about:config page via the location/address bar. You can accept the warning and click "I'll be careful" to continue.
I tried..and then restarted firefox and restarted the computer. It still crashes without generating new crash reports.
