Firefox has been crashing several times an hour for multiple days. I have tried:

Changing/Upgrading RAM Reinstalling Firefox Resetting Firefox Reinstalling Windows Updating Drivers

As the title states, every time I try to zoom into a page using pinch and zoom with my touch-pad, firefox nightly crashes. However, if I try to zoom in using CTRL+ and CTRL-, it works just fine.

I have tried to disable hardware acceleration but it didnt help.

These are the logs which I obtained from the crash reporter: AdapterDeviceID: 0x46a8 AdapterDriverVendor: mesa/iris AdapterDriverVersion: 24.2.8.0 AdapterVendorID: 0x8086 AvailablePageFile: 1012457472 AvailablePhysicalMemory: 10165415936 AvailableSwapMemory: 2000678912 AvailableVirtualMemory: 12812111872 BackgroundTaskMode: 0 BuildID: 20250613160838 ContentSandboxCapabilities: 119 ContentSandboxCapable: 1 ContentSandboxLevel: 6 CrashTime: 1750302886 DOMFissionEnabled: 1 DOMIPCEnabled: 1 DesktopEnvironment: ubuntu:gnome EMCheckCompatibility: true EventLoopNestingLevel: 1 GpuSandboxLevel: 0 GraphicsCriticalError: |[0][GFX1-]: RenderCompositorSWGL failed mapping default framebuffer, no dt (t=148.335) GraphicsNumActiveRenderers: 2 GraphicsNumRenderers: 1 HeadlessMode: 0 InstallTime: 1749869266 IsWayland: 1 LastStartupWasCrash: 0 LinuxUnderMemoryPressure: 0 MozCrashReason: internal error: entered unreachable code NimbusEnrollments: upgrade-spotlight-rollout:treatment,fx-accounts-ping-release-rollout-2:control,disable-ads-startup-cache:control,desktop-nightly-show-relay-to-13501-logged-out-users:synthetic-control,desktop-credit-card-autofill-global-enablement-rollout-nightly:creditcard-enable,enable-enrollment-status-telemetry-in-firefox-desktop:control,desktop-address-autofill-india-nightly-rollout:control,fpp-screen-avail-hardware-concurrency-desktop:control,hide-descriptions-on-newtab-articles-fix-rollout:control Notes: Ubuntu Core 24FP(D10-L1000-W0000000-T01) WR?

Any help or direction would be appreciated, Thanks!

Why is Firefox crashing so often? What changed? Is there something I need to do to prevent his? Once or twice a week or sometimes a day, but It seems to crash when I am just in my Gmail, sometimes 4 or 5 times an hour. Is Chrome a better option?

For many years, I have been exchanging video calls on Facebook.

Recent attempts to video call the same person I've been video calling for the past 3 years result in "your browser doesn't support video calls"

Have I been "hacked"?

Please explain.

Could a real person answer this question for me, please? Thank you.

Since 2/11, I have eleven aboutg:crashes crash reports. Tab crashes (i.e Youtube), browser crashes. Sometimes when I have Firefox and Chrome open at the same time, for an extended length of time, (I reluctantly use Chrome when Firefox has a problem with a site) they both crash.

I've opened related threads here in the past with no help offered, so maybe I can get a suggestion where else to get help?

Hello, I have ran into issues with the file upload window in firefox locking the program. I am not quite sure if I have tried uploading anything since the last update a few days ago, but it happens regardless of the website I use. It basically just freezes up as soon as it opens the file explorer window. I tried on chrome with no issues so it doesn't seem to be a windows thing as far as I can tell. I restarted my pc to see if that would help, but with no luck. I opened up task manager when this was happening to check what was going on and firefox seemed to be stuck using almost all the ram on my system 15.7 out of 16gb.

Anyone have this issue occurring in the last few days? Any thoughts on how to fix?

Thanks for any help

I keep constantly crashing, multiple times. Here are my latest crash IDs:

I run Firefox under Linux Mint. Both are always update to the latest level. Over the past 1 to 1.5 years, across updates to both Firefox and Mint and multiple 'clean' installs of Firefox, I have experienced many crashes from Firefox per week. Sometimes there will be as many as 5 per day, but never less than one per day. During the same period I have also been running Vivaldi; it has not crashed once in that time. Now I have to do something. If there is a simple way to perform 'problem source identification', that is within my capability, I would be grateful for advice. If there is not, then clearly I will have to un-install Firefox.

As far as I can tell both of these browsers run with just 1 add-on/extension: uBlock Origin. Disabling this extension in Firefox does not stop Firefox from crashing.

I have noticed that just recently videos across all different websites are not displaying properly. The image part of the video is a green scrambled mess. The audio is fine, but the images are wrong. I am not having this issue on a different browser, and I'm not sure what I'm supposed to do. I don't know if changing any of the settings will help or if there's a bug in one of the updates.

When I try to log in, I get the "your account has been locked for security reasons" message. I understand I'm supposed to get an email with a code to confirm my identity, but I didn't. I tried multiple times in the last few days. The only mail I got from Mozilla is one asking me to log in to change my password. But obviously, I can't log in.

Hello Just reinstalled windows, new browser, frequent crashes while downloading big files from googledisc What should i check?

I have been getting this error for about a week - absolutelyu no changes have been made to my usual use of the PC and browser. There may have been Firefox/Windows updates installed. I'm not doing anything different to the usual work I do.

I have tried using a new Firefox profile with no cached info carried over, this doesn't solve the problem. I have no extensions or add ons. I do run Avast, but haven't had this problem before.

NB: I do not usually get the opportunity to submit a crash report when these crashes happen.

There going down like flies chief I have no idea how long they'll last or what the root cause is but I have report numbers listed below: bp-6a2f6577-50b4-4503-aa6f-edc0c0250714 7/14/2025, 5:44 AM bp-cca0da19-acc6-4699-b2fd-f78070250714 7/14/2025, 5:44 AM bp-3afd947d-1ab0-4e44-9fee-f4cbb0250714 7/14/2025, 1:05 AM bp-9399b8e9-a389-41bb-9231-a95d50250714 7/14/2025, 3:54 PM bp-8e2c1005-1c7b-49ea-8a50-dbb780250714 7/14/2025, 3:55 PM bp-d270fbee-4e08-4c3b-a6ce-870400250714 7/14/2025, 3:55 PM bp-1cd7a43d-c702-4a15-bb9f-396ef0250714 7/14/2025, 3:56 PM bp-e6cd9efa-9998-4408-872a-713c60250714 7/14/2025, 3:56 PM bp-23709997-e2af-4463-b1ce-b7a4f0250714 7/14/2025, 3:56 PM bp-d46d3db6-876e-4794-a500-f1a590250714 7/14/2025, 3:56 PM bp-723ea32e-8da6-46c0-bbc2-ea5190250714 7/14/2025, 3:56 PM bp-a8860709-a511-44de-9f6a-318560250714 7/14/2025, 3:56 PM bp-fa8c5f4b-5b15-46d1-8df6-ae76f0250714 7/14/2025, 3:56 PM bp-bc81e502-f570-4e59-86b3-e2d720250714 7/14/2025, 3:56 PM bp-ddfeae99-8833-4297-9d0c-010d20250714 7/14/2025, 3:56 PM

Firefox Desktop (x64) worked normally until the version 135 update was installed. Now tabs (even a single tab) crash after startup unless Firefox is run in troubleshooting mode or Windows 8 compatibility mode. OS is Windows 10 Pro (x64) 22H2 on ThinkPad E495 (AMD Ryzen 5 3500U) Things that haven't resolved the problem: - Remove extensions and themes - Refresh Firefox - Reinstall Firefox - Updating Visual C++ 2015-2022 with Redistributable (x64) version 14.42.34438 - Updating Firefox to version 135.0.1 and subsequently to version 136.0, however updater only works in Windows 8 compatibility mode - Full system scan for malware (none found) Note: Extensions NoScript and Cookie AutoDelete work normally with Firefox running in Windows 8 compatibility mode.

Over the past few weeks, tabs keep crashing several times a day. It happens most often on X, but this morning, a tab crashed while completing an online order (grrr). My computer is up to date, cookies, cache and history cleared regularly and today I "refreshed" Firefox. In less than an hour, tab crashed again. What is going on???

I'm very close to changing browsers.

I keep having an issue on my desktop of every new tab I open crashing. I can access the homepage, but if I put anything into the search bar, the screen goes to "Gah. Your tab just crashed. We can help! Choose Restore This Tab to reload the page." And when I try to restore the page, it brings me back to that screen again. I couldn't even access Mozilla Support on my desktop to report this, I am on this site through my phone.

My screen has been zoomed so I only see half of the email or image. Support at yahoo said that this is a Firefox issue. I would like to"unzoom" so I can see the full screen ar one time.

Since updating Thunderbird crashes shortly after starting or sooner if I initiate an update check. If I pull the internet connection and the update check fails it doesn't crash.

Firefox has been crashing several times an hour for multiple days. I have tried:

Changing/Upgrading RAM Reinstalling Firefox Resetting Firefox Reinstalling Windows Updating Drivers

Thought only Ubuntu's Linux Firefox 136.0 was 'unstable' on my Gateway E-475M laptop - crashes, restores session then freezes only to log me out, then completely locking up requiring holding down power button and rebooting...

Now, even Firefox 136.0 on WIN7 is crashing, then restores session only to go to the 'blue screen of death' requiring holding down the power button and rebooting...

Evidently, the problem is not with Ubuntu or WIN7, but either: Firefox (Linux or win version); or, the Gateway E-475M laptop (2.0GHz CPU, 4Gb RAM, 8Gb swapfile, Harddrive at 61% usage, Linux/Win on separate booting partitions, LAN + usb & pci wifi's, etc.) - both OS's used to work fine, but as upgrades to Firefox have come along, they have steadily gotten more and more unstable...

Sometime, I'm only making a bookmark, and it starts this circus act... does it on differing websites, etc. Firefox is the only thing loaded - using two windows on two different monitors ...at a loss as to what to do - Firefox is supposed to be THE lightest-weight browser out there, and was for awhile... the only extension used on both systems is "NoScript" - could that be causing the disturbance in the force?!?
