I've recently updated my firefox to the latest 44.0.2 (I was at 41 before) and I've encountered this problem 2 times already in a few days. I'm running Windows 7 Ultimate x64 SP1. I can provide information like Crash logs, BSOD logs, any relevant information about my PC or browser, my addon list etc.

Start Firefox in Safe Mode {web Link} by holding down the <Shift>
(Mac=Options) key, and then starting Firefox. Is the problem still there?

While still in Safe Mode,

In the address bar, type about:crashes<enter>. Note: If any reports do not have BP in front of the numbers/letters, click it to submit them.

The crash report is several pages of data. We need the report numbers to see the whole report.

Using your mouse, mark the most resent 7 - 10 crash reports, and copy them. Now go to the reply box below and paste them in.

Well thing is that this only occurs once or twice a week and I can't have my safe mode on all the time hoping that it'll randomly occur even though it has a good chance not to. And since it bluescreens, I don't have any reports (none in that menu anyway). I just want to know if anyone else had that problem and if anyone has it in the latest version of firefox.
