Error Message after Closing Firefox

Every time I close Firefox I receive an error message that the program stopped working. I have searched for a fix for this issue but I can't get it resolved. I have uninstalled Firefox and reinstalled it with no success. I am using Windows 8.1, 64 bit.

# Click the ≡ Menu Button and choose Options.
# Click the Privacy icon.
# Select "Firefox will: Use custom settings for history".
# Is the "Clear history when closing Firefox" option enabled? If so, uncheck it and see if the problem still occurs.
If Firefox crashes with that option unchecked, see the following article. If none of the troubleshooting steps help, please note the "Get help fixing this crash" section at the end.

Error window after closing Firefox!

Hi,
After closing Firefox an error window appears. And after closing that window another smaller one appears.
Please help me.
Best Wishes,
Nick

What errors are you having appear?
Try to start Firefox in [[Safe mode|Safe mode]]. This mode disables all extensions, user customizations, hardware acceleration, etc. temporarily for diagnostic and troubleshooting. If Firefox works fine in Safe Mode, then this is likely an add-on issue. Restart Firefox in normal mode, then type "About:addons" (without the quotes) in the address bar. Disable your extensions one by one, restarting Firefox between each one, until you find the trouble maker. Once you do, you can disable that add-on and report the issue to that add-on's developer.
A few other basic trouble shooting things you can try is this:
Run all Windows Updates, install all needed service packs, etc.
Update your graphics driver (Firefox uses your graphics card for some rendering, and an out of date graphics card driver can cause problems. [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/how-do-i-upgrade-my-graphics-drivers https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/how-do-i-upgrade-my-graphics-drivers].
Update all your plugins (Flash, Java, etc.): [http://www.mozilla.org/plugincheck/ http://www.mozilla.org/plugincheck/].
Download and Install MalwareBytes Anti-Malware, run a full Scan. [http://www.malwarebytes.org/ http://www.malwarebytes.org/]. This helps check that there are no viruses on your computer causing issues. You can uninstall this program after you clean off any infections.

I.e. -adobe license utility ..., log transport application..., photoshop elements 13editor ..., elements 13 organizer... not working any more.
My previous version PSE12 I have deinstalled, still keeping PRE12. Tried to clean all remainings with adobe CC cleaner. I also tried a couple of deinstallation plus new installation of PSE13.
Any idears how to get rid of the error messages?

Hi Sandeep, the error messages look like this - all of the critical events in the past are related to PSE13.
Thanks for your support. Cheers maracris07

I am using Window 7 64 bit

Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
*Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.

After closing firefox, if I decide to go back online it says firefox is still running. I have all windows closed. I have to restart my computer before it will let me go online again.

If I go offline and later decide to go back online the error message says the firefox is still running even though all windows are closed.

*Wait a bit longer before reopening Firefox to give Firefox more time to close completely.
*Use "Firefox/File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit") to close Firefox if you are currently doing that by clicking the close X on the title bar.

After closing Firefox, at times I have to use task manger to shut down firefox.exe*32 at times,

As my title says, after closing Firefox, at times I have to use task manger to shut down firefox.exe*32 at times. I've left it running for up to 5 minutes to see if it shuts down/closes and it doesn't. I've also reloaded Firefox. My system is a Lenovo H210 with 3 gig of Ram and no added video card, the OS is Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit SP1. I realize the memory is on the small side. I did try to update VLC player this morning to V 2.1.2 but it fails to run after instal due to file errors.

Hello,
'''Try Firefox Safe Mode''' to see if the problem goes away. Safe Mode is a troubleshooting mode, which disables most add-ons.
''(If you're not using it, switch to the Default theme.)''
* On Windows you can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by holding the '''Shift''' key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
* On Mac you can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by holding the '''option''' key while starting Firefox.
* On Linux you can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by quitting Firefox and then going to your Terminal and running: firefox -safe-mode (you may need to specify the Firefox installation path e.g. /usr/lib/firefox)
* Or open the Help menu and click on the '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' menu item while Firefox is running.
[[Image:FirefoxSafeMode|width=520]]
''Once you get the pop-up, just select "'Start in Safe Mode"''
[[Image:Safe Mode Fx 15 - Win]]
'''''If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one. Please follow the [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] article for that.
''To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before opening Firefox for normal use again.''
''When you figure out what's causing your issues, please let us know. It might help other users who have the same problem.''
Thank you.

Because of a problem, I uninstalled Firefox once, reinstalled it and it ran. I had a problem so I uninstalled/reinstalled it again. Now it will not run.

The is only one Firefox installed and it is not open. What does this mean and how do I fix it?

If you use ZoneAlarm Extreme Security then try to disable Virtualization.
