I'm installing 25295.1000 now, but had no issues with this build. What version of Firefox are you running?

I am running firefox version 109.0.1. Weird, I even tried to reinstall firefox this morning, still having the same issues. Just few pages, couple minutes later, it freezes always.
I'm now in 25295, let use is for some time and see what happens. I was having the freeze issue since 102, but it appears to have stopped happening for me.

Tried again today, died at my 1st page...
I guess I am fine now, I heard Firefox released a new version 110, so I downloaded and have been using for sometime, looks okay now. But surprisingly it is not available in MS store yet, so I guess either 109v not working or the version 109 in MS specifically not working
Open your profile folder:
Click the menu button Fx89menuButton, click Help and select More Troubleshooting Information. The Troubleshooting Information tab will open. Under the Application Basics section next to Profile Folder, click Open Folder . Your profile folder will open.
Click the Firefox menu Fx89menuButton and select Exit. Wait until Firefox has completely quit. In the Firefox profile folder, find and rename the files places.sqlite to places.sqlite.old and places.sqlite-journal to places.sqlite-journal.old (if it exists). To rename a file, right-click on it and select rename from the menu. Then add .old to the end of its name. Finally, reopen Firefox. When Firefox reopens it will create a new places database. Your browsing history will be lost but Firefox will automatically import your bookmarks from the most recent backup file.
