Hi. Firefox keeps crashing when I try to download a file, since update version 59.0.2. I'm using windows 10 64 bit. If I restart the PC It runs fine for a while, but if I put the computer to sleep and use firefox after waking it up. Browsing is fine, but if I try to save an image or download a file it crashes. The file gets saved to the download location, but if I start firefox again. The download starts over, deleting the previously downloaded file.

I don't understand the problem. It just crashed again at download and I can see only that crash report in the browser. No other reports.

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?


Start your Computer in safe mode with network support. Then start Firefox. Try Secure websites. Is the problem still there?
