No updates. I am ready to just give up on Firefox, even though I like it the best. I even had trouble getting into the crash report without it crashing. I've had problems since I got the latest update of Windows 10- first I couldn't get online, (didn't recognize my supplier) now this.

Did what they said, - still having Flash crashes, but not as often.
