When I try to open Firefox it opens hundreds of crash reporter dialogue boxes and makes my computer slow to a halt, only restarting my computer can stop the onslaught. Resolving a dialogue/close all doesn't help.
I've tried holding shift to start in troubleshoot mode, but it just opens the crash boxes rather than the 'do you want to start in troubleshoot' box.
I've run a scan with Malwarebytes, no hits, and Windows says there's no updates for me. I can't see any specific crash number, the 'submit' file in my Crash Reports folder says this:
[WARN crashreporter::net::ping] not sending legacy crash ping because no ping directory configured
