We understand how frustrating it is when Firefox crashes (closes or quits unexpectedly). When Firefox crashes, the Mozilla Crash Reporter will allow you to submit a crash to us, so we can continue making improvements to Firefox. Here are also some things to try to get Firefox up and running optimally.
- If the page stops working because part of the page has crashed or stopped responding, try reloading the page to see if that fixes the problem.
- If Firefox is open but won't respond to any of your actions, then this is a hang, not a crash. See Firefox hangs or is not responding - How to fix for solutions.
- If Firefox crashes at startup:
- Check to see if the crash happens in Troubleshoot Mode (see below).
- Try a clean reinstall (see Firefox keeps crashing at startup).
Otherwise, follow the steps below in order.

Sometimes, these applications load harmful modules that cause Firefox crashes, reduced performance, or compatibility issues. You may not notice that a malicious or unexpected module has been loaded, and it may cause problems that appear to be Firefox issues. For more information, see Identify problems caused by third-party modules in Firefox for Windows.

The crash still happens in Troubleshoot Mode
If your crash still happens in Troubleshoot Mode, it is not being caused by an extension, theme, or hardware acceleration. Try to get help with your crash ID (see below).
The crash doesn't happen in Troubleshoot Mode
If your crash doesn't happen in Troubleshoot Mode, it is most likely because an extension, theme, or hardware acceleration is causing the crash.
