Hello everyone,
I have a similar problem to those mentioned in the discussions here...

..but the solutions given there do not help me here I am afraid.
We use Firefox with automatic updates switched on, on 3 systems here - 2 Windows 7 and 1 Windows 10.
Firefox has updated to 71 on all 3 systems.
The Windows 10 installation went without a hitch, but the 2 Windows 7 systems have had problems, although one has resolved itself somehow.
Unfortunately the update on my Windows 7 laptop has not gone well.
Firefox has become unusable on this system since the Firefox 71 update.
Firefox keeps crashing every time that I try to run it, showing a Windows error box stating "Firefox has stopped working and need to close" message, along with the following crash info...
Problem signature: Problem Event Name: APPCRASH Application Name: firefox.exe Application Version: 71.0.0.7275 Application Timestamp: 5de4f320 Fault Module Name: StackHash_312e Fault Module Version: 0.0.0.0 Fault Module Timestamp: 00000000 Exception Code: c0000005 Exception Offset: 000000006fff150a OS Version: 6.1.7601.2.1.0.768.3 Locale ID: 2057 Additional Information 1: 312e Additional Information 2: 312e0f649e68df8b8010198c924de691 Additional Information 3: 2e28 Additional Information 4: 2e281e0f3e7e2e5b3bd20302d95cb119
I Cannot open in safe mode - it crashes immediately.
I have tried an uninstall/fresh install - still does not solve the problem.
I therefore have had to revert back to Firefox 70.0.1 to get it working again, and have had to switch off automatic updates until I can solve this problem.
Any help or advice would be much appreciated.
Thank you

I'm running Firefox 71 on Linux. I notice that when I load a page into a new tab (either from middle-clicking links, or entering URL manually), Firefox UI is unresponsive for about 2 seconds. During that time, I'm unable to switch tabs--either by clicking, or with Ctrl+Tab. I tried restarting with all add-ons disabled, but the problem persists.
The problem disappears if i were to create a new temporary profile, though. So it's clear that something in my current profile is screwed up, but not sure what. Other things I've tried: quit Firefox, I vacuumed all `.sqlite` files in my profile; cleaned up all the cached images (not site data, though).
I'm keen to continue using my profile rather than create and setup a new one. Any help to trouble shoot this problem is appreciated.
Thanks.

New Desktiop with Windows 10. Newly installed FF70. ONLY in FF do the keystokes lag when typing ANYwhere (Like now) Tried numerous things - Refresh, Troubleshoot & Uninstall & re-install. All other software (MS Office - notepae) woeking just fine. NOTE: because of my vision my Theme in Windows 10 is "High Contrast B&W". My old destop is still working fine. With this new install of FF70 I am not able to even change colors.
Firefox is requiring a security key be inserted to login to Microsoft.
I have never had one and never used one. It will not allow any other type of login. This does not occur on IE or Chrome.
