Since no info was sent regarding your Extensions please do this then go to Youtube : Try Firefox Safe Mode to see if the problem goes away. Firefox Safe Mode is a troubleshooting mode that temporarily turns off hardware acceleration, resets some settings, and disables add-ons (extensions and themes).
If Firefox is open, you can restart in Firefox Safe Mode from the Help menu:
- Click the menu button , click Help and select Restart with Add-ons Disabled.
If Firefox is not running, you can start Firefox in Safe Mode as follows:
- On Windows: Hold the Shift key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
- On Mac: Hold the option key while starting Firefox.
- On Linux: Quit Firefox, go to your Terminal and run firefox -safe-mode
(you may need to specify the Firefox installation path e.g. /usr/lib/firefox)
When the Firefox Safe Mode window appears, select "Start in Safe Mode".
If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode, your problem is probably caused by an extension, theme, or hardware acceleration. Please follow the steps in the Troubleshoot extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems article to find the cause.
To exit Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before opening Firefox for normal use again.
When you figure out what's causing your issues, please let us know. It might help others with the same problem.

Going in safe mode and then back to normal solved the pasting problem. I just tried to open a URL and Firefox stopped responding and my CPU went to 100% because of this.

HI, please do not blockquote everything, we all know what we said. When used properly it is a great tool of code. https://www.w3schools.com/tags/tag_blockquote.asp
Your Crash Reports are not of any help as it shows you killed it/Ended it.
Did you go to Youtube as you were asked to and do all the things you were having issues with ?
The purpose of Safe Mode is to find what Extension is causing the issue besides what is turned off when in Safe Mode as per troubleshoot : https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/troubleshoot-extensions-themes-to-fix-problems
To be Checked and turned off unless needed for accessibility : Please : go to the Firefox 3 Bar Menu --> Options --> Privacy & Security panel and under Permissions check (put a tick in the box) the setting to Prevent Accessibility Services from accessing your browser.
I went to YouTube and found nothing useful. Every time i click on a URL Firefox crashes and the CPU usage goes to 100%, that's why i end Firefox from the task manager.
hi, please see if the following can address the crashing issue: go to the firefox menu ≡ > options > privacy & security panel and under permissions check the setting to prevent accessibility services from accessing your browser.
the problem to paste into youtube comments was a site issue that got fixed by google in the past couple of days, so perhaps try to clear cookies & cache if you're still having problems there: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1466391
I checked the box and the same thing happens. Sometimes when i click on a link Firefox crashes completely and sometimes i get this message "A web page is slowing down your browser."
Certain Firefox problems can be solved by performing a Clean reinstall. This means you remove your Firefox program files and then reinstall Firefox. This process does not remove your Firefox profile data (such as bookmarks and passwords), since that information is stored in a different location.
To do a clean reinstall of Firefox, please follow these steps: Note: You might want to print these steps or view them in another browser.
- Download the latest Desktop version of Firefox from this page) and save the setup file to your computer.
- After the download finishes, close all Firefox windows (or open the Firefox menu and click the close button ).
- Delete the Firefox installation folder, which is located in one of these locations, by default:
- Windows:
- C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox
- C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox
- Mac: Delete Firefox from the Applications folder.
- Linux: If you installed Firefox with the distro-based package manager, you should use the same way to uninstall it - see Install Firefox on Linux. If you downloaded and installed the binary package from the Firefox download page, simply remove the folder firefox in your home directory.
- Windows:
- Now, go ahead and reinstall Firefox:
- Double-click the downloaded installation file and go through the steps of the installation wizard.
- Once the wizard is finished, choose to directly open Firefox after clicking the Finish button.
More information about reinstalling Firefox can be found here.
WARNING: Do not use a third party uninstaller as part of this process. Doing so could permanently delete your Firefox profile data, including but not limited to, extensions, cache, cookies, bookmarks, personal settings and saved passwords. These cannot be easily recovered unless they have been backed up to an external device! See Back up and restore information in Firefox profiles.
Please report back to say if this helped you!
Thank you.
I've already tried too much, i'll just leave it like this for now and not risk braking something else. Thanks for your time.
