Firefox unexpectedly exits
In the last couple of days, Firefox has started unexpectedly exiting.
It doesn't show an error message on screen or create a Firefox crash report - it just vanishes - but it does create a WER log and entry in the Windows Application error log. It doesn't necessarily exit when it has the focus in response to user interaction - some times I'll be doing something else, and try to tab back to Firefox, and it's just gone. Mean time between crashes is about 30 minutes - not "instantly" or "on startup" but enough to be unlivable with.
I have reinstalled Firefox, checked that it is up to date (73.0.1 (64-bit)), and disabled all my plugins except 1Password (I can't really use a browser without the 1Password plugin so if it doesn't work with it on, it's the same as it not working at all)
Some WER log files for example:

and here's a windows application log entry:

Hi Ben Curthoys
Please reply with your crash ids (should start with 'bp-').
You can find details on how to do this from: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/mozillacrashreporter
Cheers!

As I said:
"It doesn't show an error message on screen or create a Firefox crash report - it just vanishes"
There are no records in the Crash Reports folder, and when it crashes, it doesn't show the Mozilla Crash Reporter dialog box. It just exits.
I expect it's an issue similar to this:
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1579758
I've stopped a bunch of services I don't need and I'll see if that helps.
... update... nope, I've stopped all the services I can and the problem persists.

Never mind, I've reinstalled Chrome and the problem isn't bothering me any more.
Hi Ben Curthoys, sorry to hear that. Please consider filing a bug report if you choose to pursue this in the future: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/enter_bug.cgi
Cheers!
