Firefox keeps crashing when it opens.

I've now installed Firefox several times including at least one clean install. I've worked through all the support pages on how to fix the problem, including system scan using MalwareBytes, and removing extensions, but the problem persists.

To be more precise, sometimes it just crashes immediately leaving the notices shown in the image. Sometimes it opens and stays for a while but then crashes with a similar notice.

Crash reports:

Do you have anything like Explorer Patcher? It crashes Firefox.

Thanks, that confirms my hunch: I've just uninstalled that and the problem appears to be solved. Do you know if StartAllBack causes the same issue?

That's fine, have installed StartAllBack and so far all good. Thanks for your help.
