Firefox crashes
Firefox crashes at seemingly random intervals. If multiple tabs are open at one time or if larger webpages are open crashes seem more frequent. I have tried reinstalling, safe mode, disabling add-ons, ect. Nothing seems to make any difference. I have been useing Firefox for years and do not want to have to switch.
One of the crash IDs is 87d39725-b312-4e7d-92f7-3e5e12160203.
Please let me know of any other information that I may be able to provide.
Chosen solution
I used the system file check and no problems with the system files.
Both of my graphics drivers (one is Intel HD4000 and the other is a GeForce 650m) were up to date.
I uninstalled both of the drivers anyway and let windows 10 reinstall them though windows update.
I also uninstalled Firefox and deleted all of its data again before reinstalling.
The problem seems to be fixed now. Perhaps when I installed Windows 10 on this machine it installed the graphics drivers improperly. Even though every other program on the machine worked properly except Firefox. I do not know.
Thank you very much cor-el and FredMcD for the support.

You can try to disable hardware acceleration in Firefox.
- Tools > Options > Advanced > General > Browsing: "Use hardware acceleration when available"
You need to close and restart Firefox after toggling this setting.
You can check if there is an update for your graphics display driver and check for hardware acceleration related issues.
You can check for problems with current Shockwave Flash plugin versions and hardware acceleration in Firefox and try this:
- make sure you have the latest Flash version:
http://www.adobe.com/special/products/flashplayer/fp_distribution3.html - check for updates for your graphics drive drivers
https://support.mozilla.org/kb/upgrade-graphics-drivers-use-hardware-acceleration - disable protected mode in the Flash plugin (Windows Vista and later)
https://support.mozilla.org/kb/adobe-flash-protected-mode-firefox - disable hardware acceleration in the Flash plugin

I made sure that I have the most current version of flash. Do you think that flash is the culprit of these crashes?
I have not had time to test for further crashes yet.
