Firefox is crashing every time I try to run. I've tried the following things but can't get an instance running on my machine.
1/ Clean install after deleting history and old files 2/ Open in safe mode 3/ Open in safe mode from command prompt and direct run (Windows 7)
Following is the list of last 5 crash reports: 1/ bp-3a9e1f0e-8fa7-4128-b58e-ecc342140616 2/ bp-76507d64-5068-4362-bdee-036e62140616 3/ bp-29264169-b16e-4ae6-8d15-646bb2140616 4/ bp-1328bfd9-9313-4973-9101-dc4b02140611 5/ bp-ac364a97-1ab6-494e-abae-c9f502140611

Hi kuba130000,
Thank you for your response.
As I've mentioned in my issue - I cannot get fire fox running in any situation on my machine.
And I've also copied the latest 5 crash report IDs. Not sure why don't you see them in my original issue.

Did you try this; To start Firefox in Safe Mode; Hold down the Shift key (On Mac the Options key), then call the program.
Yes I did.
Crashes after the attempt.
Start your Computer in safe mode with networking. Than try again.
Tried that.. didn't work that way as well..
Did you try to disable Digital Guardian (Verdasys)?
Don't have access to it.
Other people in the organisation are using the same operating system as me (Common Operating Environment) without any issues to FF.
So, Digital Guardian is very less likely the cause for this issue.
The crashes are caused by the dgapi.dll file as you can see by the signature of the crash reports
- Firefox 30.0 Crash Report [@ dgapi.dll@0x92d5d ]

Christopher Loiselle The conflict between Verdasys Digital Guardian and Firefox is due to Digital Guardian only supporting ESR versions of Firefox. If you run into a problem with Firefox and Verdasys Digital Guardian please have your organizations Digital Guardian Support contact open a support incident with Verdasys Support for more information on suggested work arounds. Thank you, Chris Loiselle Director, Technical Support Verdasys Inc.
Firefox 24.6.0 ESR:
I've already seen this. But no luck so far!
Are you able to install the Firefox 24 ESR version?
You can also try the portable (ESR) Firefox version as a test. The portable version comes with its own profile folder and doesn't interfere with the currently installed release version.
Yes I tried installing FF 24 ESR version.
Same issue.
