Can you tell me why Adobe flash crashes every time I open a page? It does not matter what the site is, or how often i submit a crash report, it happens all the time. I am using Firefox 41.0.2 with the latest version of Adobe and it still happens all the time.

This is not a cure, but should let the web page load without crashing.

Start Firefox in Safe Mode {web Link} by holding down the <Shift>

key, and then starting Firefox. Is the problem still there?

I have this problem too, and disabling Protected Mode seems to expose me to other security risks.

This reply makes no sense to me at all. There is nowhere on the links listed above to post system details. What does this mean and where are you talking about?

Would you be willing to try something unorthodox?

This is a problem that has plagued Firefox for years. It has to do with the way the plugins are handled in a nutshell and ONLY exists within Firefox no other browser has this issue.

I stumbled across something that may resolve your issues; I have not seen an error like this for years on my machine after implementing it.
