Why is the latest update repeatedly crashing my computer?
Since the latest Firefox update, it has frozen the app & crashed my computer multiple times within a few days; it has also caused problems logging into my primary bank account ("access denied") but has nothing to do with the bank (I called the bank; no problems there, but they suggest using Chrome browser. NO WAY!) Every time Firefox has updated the past few months, it has interfered with my password vault’s proper functioning {Last Pass}. I am using a late 2012 Mac mini, running OS 10.15.1 (the newest acceptable OS for my computer). I attribute some of the problem to their adding a number of new features without making certain the basic app is stable.

There's some basic troubleshooting steps in Troubleshoot Firefox crashes (closing or quitting unexpectedly) — however please make sure the crash reports get submitted, and once they are, please post their IDs here so somebody could take a look.
The steps are:
- Enter about:crashes in the Firefox address bar and press Enter. A list of Submitted (and Unsubmitted, if any) Crash Reports will appear, similar to the one shown below.
- Copy the 5 most recent Submitted Report IDs that start with bp- and then go back to your forum question and paste those IDs into the "Post a Reply" box.
Note: If a recent Report ID does not start with bp- click on it to submit the report.
(Please don't take a screenshot of your crashes, just copy and paste the IDs. The below image is just an example of what your Firefox screen should look like.)
