After the last update, Firefox won't open. Instead, I get this message:

"Firefox is already running but is not responding. The old Firefox process must be closed to open a new window."

I have closed it within the error message but the error message comes back each time I try to open Firefox.

Please help, Deb

This morning I reset my PC, and upon doing so Firefox would just not work. Anytime I tried booting up firefox it would for a split second show the browser than revert to a screen where its just the firefox logo, where upon clicking it would become unresponsive

I've uninstalled and reinstalled twice both times completely clearing out firefox data from across my pc, i've tried to make new profiles, i've cleared out caches etc, yet anytime i try boot it up it still doesnt work

i've spent the past 6 hours just looking through fixes and still, nothing works every other browser works fine, aside from firefox

Hi all,

Version 153 in general seems to be more buggy than previous.

• The most affected bug now is opening links in new tabs will endlessly show the loading animation in the favicon tab area, and the page will be blank failing to load the content.

• No choice but to restart Firefox in order for it to function again.

• Also, every time relaunching Firefox gives the "Firefox is already running" message pop up.

• This started happening after updating to version 153.

Firefox 153.0.1 (32-bit) Windows 10 - 22H2

Thank you in advance

I have used firefox for 13 years now and I have never had any major issues with it. but recently I have noticed that whenever I open it on my laptop, the laptop freezes and then a black screen, then a mozzila firefox crash dialog box. sometimes I am forced to hard restart the laptop then use another browser. I still want to continue using Firefox but that issue is really frustrating.

Thank you

Hello

I kept getting crashed error everytime I open firefox. It prompted me to update which I did and install. I LOST ALL my apps and passwords that was shortcut on firefox. I need that restored as it has a lot of my business access links to sites.

Additionally firefox keeps crashing and giving me error message to restore or close. I click close but I also clicked restore and it still kept on giving me issues. It's causing me a lot of stress.

Please get back to me asap [redacted phone# and email from public community support forum]

When attempting to start Firefox a box appears requesting password to install HELPER. Passwords are not accepted and CANCEL button halts Firefox startup. I have been a Firefox user for 15+ years. Don't want to be using Safari on the Mac. Q

I have had problems with the latest FF for Mac for a week or so. Not opening. I deleted and reinstalled it, and the problem continues. It crashes my system and I have a spinning wheel that required a hard restart. What's going on? Running Tahoe 26.5.2
