Firefox crashes when system file dialog is displayed?

Before I switch to Microsoft Edge.

Does anyone have a working solution to Firefox crashing on me every time the system file dialog opens in order for me to save something?

This is an ongoing problem and I don't seem to be the only one with this issue.

So is there a fix or should I just stop wasting my time with Firefox and move to Microsoft Edge like so many have done already?

Thanks
