Firefox not closing properly

Hi,

For a couple of weeks I've noticed, that at night when I close Firefox and prepare to turn off my computer, the Firefox browser does not close properly.

I've also noticed that it takes a while for the browser to close. Maybe a minute or more as opposed to immediately as had been in the past. I've attached a picture and I always 'click' Quit Firefox.

I'm on an iMac running Monterey 12.4.

Thanks very much!

Hi Damian, Luckily you used the Mozilla Crash Reporter come up, so there should be a crash report we can look at. Could you please do the following:

  1. Go to Help > Troubleshooting Information. That should open a new tab with info about your Firefox setup.
  2. Under "Crash Reports for the Last 3 Days" click on your latest crash report. That should take you to a web page starting with "https://crash-stats.mozilla.com/report/index/" and post the address of your latest crash report.

We can then look at the data specific to your crash and have a better idea of what is causing the problem.

Hi Chris,

I'm hoping I did this correctly.

Please let me know what you discover and if you need additional info.

Thanks much!

Damian

Use one of these to close Firefox if you are currently doing that by clicking the close X on the Firefox Title bar, especially if you have multiple windows open to prevent losing tabs in unnoticed windows.

  • "3-bar" menu button -> Exit (Power button)
  • Windows: File -> Exit
  • Mac: Firefox -> Quit Firefox
  • Linux: File -> Quit

Thanks for writing, I want to make sure I understand your suggestion.

You think I should go to the top left of my Firefox browser, click on 'Firefox' on the drop down and click 'Quit'?

Also, what do you mean by '3-bar menu button'?

Thanks much,

Damian

I would try running Firefox in Safe Mode, close it the same way you've been doing and see if it crashes. https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/diagnose-firefox-issues-using-troubleshoot-mode#w_how-to-start-firefox-in-4troubleshoot-modesf5safe-modesf

Hi,

Well, I just did a 'troubleshoot mode' restart and it still crashed when attempting to close.

I pasted the very LONG error below, but it did not all fit.

Thx,

Damian
