This happens every time I open Firefox. It doesn't make any sense why it constantly keeps on crashing. I have to manually re-enable it. I thought that it was my graphics card but that's not the case as other browsers don't have this problem. I have tried everything posted online but none helped.

My processor can't handle 4k youtube videos, so I have to re-enable hardware acceleration in order to use my graphics card.
