Firefox 115.0 crashes when trying to browse computer to post documents, photos, etc.
When writing reviews in Google Maps when you click post pictures from your computer (allowing one to browse your computer to find pictures to post) the tab crashes.
This occurs on other websites as well where one would browse the computer to attach documents, photos or videos. Heck, it even happens with this site (selecting browse to post picture causes firefox to crash).
This did not occur prior to updating to 115.0
Windows 11 operating system

Just discovered the issue is NOT with Mozilla.
The issue is with Windows Update. Security Update 06/2023 (which I didn't install until yesterday). Unfortunately, I don't have the KB number of the update.
I do thank you for the quick response.

I think I’m having this problem too. How did you resolve it?
GKW,
I deleted the windows update and then reloaded them.
1) Open windows updates 2) Click on history 3) Delete updates that occurred when you started having the issue. 4) Restart the computer 5) Open window updates 6) Click Check for Updates 7) load updates OR manually load updates one at a time
This is what resolved my problem.
