Firefox freezes. I can not use for anything. It never use to do that. It started doing that when I gave in, into intalling windows 10 from window 7.

Firefox freezes. I can not use it for anything. It never use to do that. It started doing that when I gave in, into installing windows 10 from window 7. However I reverted back to windows 7 because of it, but it did not get rid of the problem. I could hear my CPU processor fan speed up when it does work for a short while and its going to freeze up. I have use explore to access my email, when I can not get it into Firefox. I have to use task manager to get it off the screen. I have tried everything I know from uninstalling and reinstalling it. I have gone through internet options and deleted all pass history etc. Nothing works.

Start Firefox in Safe Mode {web Link} by holding down the <Shift>
(Mac=Options) key, and then starting Firefox. A small dialog should appear. Click Start In Safe Mode (not Refresh).

Is the problem still there?
