I start Firefox & within a couple minutes there is 38 versions running in Task Manager. This occurence is usually followed by Firefox crashing or locking up causing me to End Tasks using Task Manager.

More than one process is normal for the current Firefox. http://www.ghacks.net/2016/07/22/multi-process-firefox/

Multi-process Firefox is codenamed "e10s". https://wiki.mozilla.org/Firefox/multiprocess
