Firefox is now crashing at least once an hour. This has steadily been getting worse. a month ago it would crash once a week, but now it become unusable. I have use Firefox for more that 20 years and never had a problem. All over the Internet people are complaining about this and its just getting worse. This is happening on my old Win 10 machine as well as on a brand new install on a new Win 11 machine.

Please follow the steps below to provide us crash IDs to help us learn more about your crash.

The crash report is several pages of data. We need the report numbers to see the whole report.

  1. Enter about:crashes in the Firefox address bar and press Enter. A list of Submitted (and Unsubmitted, if any) Crash Reports will appear, similar to the one shown below.
  2. Copy the 5 most recent Submitted Report IDs that start with bp- and then go back to your forum question and paste those IDs into the "Post a Reply" box.

Note: If a recent Report ID does not start with bp- click on it to submit the report.

(Please don't take a screenshot of your crashes, just copy and paste the IDs. The below image is just an example of what your Firefox screen should look like.)

Your Avast antivirus is crashing Firefox. Try to disable it for a while until they fix it, or update Firefox to 131.0.3. We don't panic anymore when Avast unexpectedly kill a connection.
