Firefox freezes some seconds or some minute after I open the program, I end task and wait to reopen the program, opening up the program it continues to freeze. I've reset firefox multiple times, cleared cache & webdata, completly uninstalled FF and reinstalled it, doesn't solve it. Starting firefox in troubleshooting mode also freezes and hangs. After end tasking firefox multiple times it eventually stops freezing but during the next day when I open the browser the issue returns, The same goes after I reinstalled it after uninstalling it, works for the rest of the day but the next day the issue returns. Background: I switched from chrome to Firefox some months ago and imported webdata from chrome to FF.

Since it also freezes in Troubleshoot Mode, I'd try a completely new Firefox profile next. Type about:profiles in the address bar, create a new profile, and test it for a day without importing Chrome data or syncing anything. If it still freezes on a clean profile, I'd look at security software or other programs interfering with Firefox rather than reinstalling it again.
