Firefox crashes repeatedly even in safe mode

Most recent Crash ID is 1091835d-1021-40c4-a3e1-0aeec0201212. Frequently - generally several times a day - a tab will crash with the "Gah! This tab has crashed!" with recover and close options. Less frequently, Firefox as a whole crashes. Sometimes the "crash reporter" window appears, but not usually. I reported this some time ago, and received suggestions about disabling plugins, updating drivers, and safe mode. I can't function in Windows safe mode because too many things don't work. However, I did update my drivers. I have run FF in safe mode several times, getting crashes about as frequently. I am fairly certain that I uninstalled and reinstalled FF at some point during this process but I am not certain.

See if there are updates for your graphics drivers https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/upgrade-graphics-drivers-use-hardware-acceleration

Make sure all software is up to date.

MemTest LAST UPDATED : 12/04/2020 Could you please run a tool from http://memtest.org/ in order to check the integrity of your RAM?

You will need a thumb or disk drive to install it on.


Do you let Windows handle the page file or did you set a fixed size ? If you use a fixed size for the page file then try the former and let Windows handle the page file.
