Firefox closes out of nowhere and no longer allows you to open it
I have been using Firefox for many years and I have never had problems, until now, out of nowhere Firefox closes and the little window opens that the report is being sent to Firefox, but I can no longer restart or open Firefox, until I reset the computer, This can happen one, two, three and even four times a day, making it very uncomfortable to reset the computer.
I have already tried many ways to solve the problem, from completely uninstalling Firefox and reinstalling it, I use very few extensions, I already disabled WebGL and also disabled hardware acceleration, nothing has worked, when Firefox closes, I cannot open Firefox Developer either and That browser was not even open at the time of the failure with Firefox.
System 3.4 GHz Intel Core i5 de cuatro núcleos NVIDIA GeForce GTX 775M 2 GB 8 GB 1600 MHz DDR3 macOS Ventura 13.6.3
Firefox: 121.0
This is what appears in the error message

You don't deactivate OCLP, you modify it to disable Sidecar:
1. Run the OpenCore Legacy Patcher app and choose "Settings", then "Misc Settings". 2. Click on the drop-down list under "Feature Unlock Status" and choose either "Partially enabled (No Airplay/Sidecar)" or "Disabled". 3. Return to the main menu and choose "Build and Install OpenCore". Follow the prompts.Læs dette svar i sammenhæng 👍 1

We're sorry to hear that Firefox is crashing. In order to assist you better, please follow the steps below to provide us crash IDs to help us learn more about your crash.
The crash report is several pages of data. We need the report numbers to see the whole report.
- Enter about:crashes in the Firefox address bar and press Enter. A list of Submitted (and Unsubmitted, if any) Crash Reports will appear, similar to the one shown below.
- Copy the 5 most recent Submitted Report IDs that start with bp- and then go back to your forum question and paste those IDs into the "Post a Reply" box.
Note: If a recent Report ID does not start with bp- click on it to submit the report.
(Please don't take a screenshot of your crashes, just copy and paste the IDs. The below image is just an example of what your Firefox screen should look like.)
Thank you for your help!
More information and further troubleshooting steps can be found in the Troubleshoot Firefox crashes (closing or quitting unexpectedly) article.
Thank you very much for the quick answer.
At the moment I only have 2 crash reports, because I am constantly uninstalling Firefox completely and reinstalling it, to get it working.
I send the report numbers, requested

Firefox crashes have decreased, but they still exist, I send two more reports:

I send a fifth bug report, the only thing that fixes it is resetting the computer.
It has a solution? Or is it time to think about changing your preferred browser?
bp-e8451de4-d71f-4199-862e-8050b0240113
All your crashes are related to Apple's Sidecar functionality, you might be able to work around it by disabling it. Bug 1801419 Comment 41 indicates it can be disabled with OpenCore Legacy Patcher (OCLP).
The problem is the following:
Apple decided overnight to change the INTEL processors to their own APPLE processors, this has caused many developers to put the Intel processor aside and have concentrated on developing around the new Apple processor.
Many Apple users with Intel processors, myself included, are trying to give a little more life to their computers and are turning to the OpenCore Legacy Patcher (OCLP).
If I deactivate this patch, I have to say goodbye to my computer or I have to change my preferred browser to Brave, which does not present these types of errors.
I'm just trying to give a little more life to my computer equipment so I buy a new computer equipment, which of course is not going to be Apple at all, it's going to be Windows, Apple had its golden days, but these are already They are gone and it is time to leave them along with their ideas, whose purpose is to make their users spend more money on their equipment.
If they can fix this bug, I will continue working in Firefox as I have been doing for many years, if they can't fix it I will have to migrate to Brave.
If you see a downward curve in Firefox usage on Apple devices, here is an answer to what could be happening.
Greetings and thanks for the follow-up

Just to make sure I understood correctly, I'm sending screenshots of everything I did and also to help other people with the same problem.
You practically have to reinstall the entire Open Legacy operating system, after setting FeatureUnlock to Disabled
I'll let you know if this works or not, I'm already testing the Firefox browser.
Thanks for the follow up
Thank you very much for the support, Firefox is the application that I use the most in my daily life.
Apparently the solution they provided me was the definitive one, since I have not had any more problems with the Firefox browser.
I'm marking this query as resolved.
