This is a problem I, and,apparently many Firefox users , are having. Specifically, the Flash plugin crashes each time I try to open Firefox More to the point, this was not a problem until a few moths ago. I have been using Firefox for well over ten years with WinXP up to and including Win10, but this problem did not appear until a few months ago.

I have tried all of the suggestions in your Help Center, and none of them work.

Please note that I have been using a Firefox on a Win10 desktop and laptop for almost a year, and did not have problems until recently.

I must conclude that your most-recent versions of Firefox have a serious problem.

This is not a cure, but should let the web page load without crashing.

Flash block {web link} Never be annoyed by a Flash animation again! Blocks Flash so it won't get in your way, but if you want to see it, just click on it


Is the problem still there?

See if there are updates for your graphics drivers https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/upgrade-graphics-drivers-use-hardware-acceleration
