Firefox had a problem and crashed

I got this "Firefox had a problem and crashed" started this morning. It crushed every time when I tried to start it, even with safe mode. I tried uninstall and reinstall Firefox. But it didn't fix the problem. Below are the list of the crush reports:

  • I just updated to 4.0.1 and I get the "We're sorry. Firefox had a problem and crashed. We will try to open your tabs/windows when Firefox restarts" However, it just keeps popping back up, firefox never restarts!!!

    This morning I had a popup on my Windows XP PC stating that the 4.0.1 update was available. I upgraded. now, i receive the following error: We're sorry. Firefox had a problem and crashed. We will try to open your tabs/windows when Firefox restarts. You can submit crash report data, blah blah blah (which i have submitted several)
    But, firefox DOES NOT ever open. It just pops back up with that same report window, over and over.

    It is possible that there is a problem with the files [http://kb.mozillazine.org/sessionstore.js sessionstore.js] and sessionstore.bak in the [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Profile Folder]
    Delete [http://kb.mozillazine.org/sessionstore.js sessionstore.js] and sessionstore.bak in the [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Profile Folder]
    * Help > Troubleshooting Information > Profile Directory: Open Containing Folder
    If you see files sessionstore-##.js with a number in the left part of the name like sessionstore-1.js then delete those as well.
    Deleting sessionstore.js will cause App Tabs and Tab Groups to get lost, so you will have to create them again (make a note).

    I was having the same problem.... But I keep forgetting that when you upgrade firefox... or it updates automatically... you need to right click on the firefox start up icon, go into properties, click on the compatibilities tab, and put a check in the "Run This Program As An Administrator" box, then hit apply. Start Firefox, and it should work OK. Problem is...each time you upgrade firefox and/or I think Adobe flash... you need to make sure that box is checked. This is on Firefox 15.0.1 with Adobe Flash 11.4.402.278 all up to date, Windows 7 64bit. If Firefox has Adobe flash add-on, it needs to run in admin mode or it will crash.

  • Firefox worked before, but now, when i try to start it, i get and error "We're sorry. Firefox had a problem and crashed". I tried to reinstall it, to reboot, nothing helps.

    Hi,
    Firefox worked before, but one time my system crashed. When I rebooted, Firefox won't start anymore. All I got is a pop-up window, saying We're sorry. Firefox had a problem and crashed. We'll try to restore your tabs and windows when it restarts. Problem is it never restarts. When I press Restart Firefox button, I get the same message. I tried to reinstall Firefox, to make a new profile, rebooted the system, nothing works. What can be done ? Thank-you.

    Of course I checked firefox crashes. I searched and haven't found my problem. I used Firefox 5 when it happened, then, seeing it doesn't work no matter what I do, I upgraded to 6. The same problem. So it's not 5 or 6 related. Computer probably wrote something to hard disk when it crashed and now the file is corrupted and prevents Firefox from starting. I don't know what file (or part of the registry) is. I could erase everything, but that would mean I will lose every Firefox settings and I don't want that. Now I am using Google Chrome to write this. I miss my Firefox. :( What else can I do ?
    This is the error I get when I try to start Firefox:

  • Installed Firefox on Windows 7, etting error "Firefox had a problem and crashed...couldn't find crash reporter's settings.

  • Upgraded to 6.0.2, now get "Firefox had a problem and crashed". Starting in Safe Mode does not help. Now what?

    Not sure what version I was running, but it worked fine but I have not been able to get it running again. I have uninstalled and reinstalled with the same results. Have followed the help pages to the point of obtaining the Crash Report... now what?
    I did notice the CR seems to think I am running Windows XP but I am actually running Windows 7 (64 bit).

    That gives Firefox 6.0.2 Crash Report [@ nsHttpHandler::QueryInterface(nsID const&, void**) ] https://crash-stats.mozilla.com/report/index/d2eddeb0-5845-4c72-987a-ad0282110917
    Unfortunately that is not really getting anywhere yet, you could become the first person to file a bug about that particular crash, but that takes a bit of time and testing.
    There is a known problem causing firefox 6 to crash and that is the use of IDvault, that can give more than one crash signature, the software developers regarding ID vault are WhiteSky, and are expecting to release a fix in a few days (if they have not already done so)
    Have you tried
    * using firefox's [[safe mode]]
    * disabling all plugins
    Does that help, either by preventing crashes or giving another recognised crash signature. You should also ensure all software is up to date, before trying adding extension software back.
    The other common cause of crashes is malware, that includes a particular Trojan that is now known to crash Firefox 6. Check out [[is my firefox problem a result of malware]] you will need to do scans using software or sites with up-to-date scanning software, if you do scan for problems say what sites or software you used and the version of software used. Downgrading firefox versions rarely helps with crashes, it may help with the one specific trojan, but the security risks would then remain, potentially causing even more problems because the browser no longer crashes.

  • When I try to open Firefox, Mozilla Crash Reporter comes up and says "Firefox had a problem and crashed." "We'll try to restore your tabs and windows when it restarts." I've tried restarting the computer several times. It was working fine yesterday.

    Before it started with the crash report it was telling me that Firefox couldn't find the server at www.yahoo.com. That's my homepage. I'm writing this on my friends computer and will also be checking my e-mail on it. I don't have any way to get a Crash ID. Thank you very much in advance- Jason

  • When I try to open Firefox I get "We're sorry, Firefox had a problem and crashed. We'll try to restore your tabs and windows when it restarts.

    I have been using Firefox for several years. Now, when I try to open it I get the above error message.

    Hi graham12345
    This looks like a problem with hardware acceleration.
    Are you sure that staring in Safe Mode isn't working?
    You can use one of these to start Firefox in <u>Safe Mode</u>:
    *On Windows, hold down the Shift key while starting Firefox with a double-click on the Firefox desktop shortcut
    *On Mac, hold down the Options key while starting Firefox
    *Help > Restart with Add-ons Disabled
    *https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Safe+Mode
    Try to set the gfx.content.azure.enabled pref to false or if this didn't help disable Direct2D by setting the gfx.direct2d.disabled pref to true on the about:config page and leave hardware acceleration otherwise enabled.
    *http://kb.mozillazine.org/about:config
    You can consider to modify the prefs.js file and add some of these:
    user_pref("gfx.content.azure.enabled", false);
    user_pref("gfx.direct2d.disabled", false);
    user_pref("layers.acceleration.disabled", true);
    That way you still have the benefit from hardware acceleration, but may not suffer from rendering issues.
    You can also try to uninstall Windows update KB2670838 if you have this update.

  • When I try to open Firefox I get a message: Mozilla Crash Reporter: firefox had a problem and crashed. Will try to restore your tabs and windows when it restarts. When I click on restore this same error box keeps appearing

    I can't open Firefox and thus can't get to my.yahoo.com or any of my bookmarks.

    Everything is good. Downloaded 8.0 and got fully restored - bookmarks too. Thanks for being so helpful, Swarnava.
