Firefox will at random times crash and when i tried to open it it will ask to reset it. Once i do that it save an old Firefox data on my desktop, once that happens when i try to open it up again, it goes straight to the same issue to reset it. Also it hangs sometimes when loading pages, even when i click the program to start it would hang and not load up. Than if i click again it says that another Firefox is open.
