- update firefox from getfirefox.com
- you may have a damaged places.sqlite file
lol when i tried to update firefox it crashed
you could also disable hardware acceleration or update graphics drivers.
- Upgrade your graphics drivers to use hardware acceleration and WebGL
- Troubleshoot extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems
Check for updates first.
Did you try to delete all places files in the Firefox profile folder to recover from the crashes when viewing the history?
You can also check for problems caused by extensions.
Do a clean reinstall and delete the Firefox program folder before (re)installing a fresh copy of the current Firefox release if there are problems with updating
Download a fresh Firefox copy and save the file to the desktop.

Uninstall your current Firefox version, if possible, to cleanup the Windows registry and settings in security software.
- Do NOT remove personal data when you uninstall your current Firefox version, because all profile folders will be removed and you lose personal data like bookmarks and passwords from profiles of other Firefox versions.
Remove the Firefox program folder before installing that newly downloaded copy of the Firefox installer.
- (32 bit Windows) "C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\"
- (64 bit Windows) "C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox\"
- It is important to delete the Firefox program folder to remove all the files and make sure that there are no problems with files that were leftover after uninstalling.

Your bookmarks and other personal data are stored in the Firefox profile folder and won't be affected by an uninstall and (re)install, but make sure that "remove personal data" is NOT selected when you uninstall Firefox.
