FireFox crashes on opening three tabs.

Asked By nasir1 0 points N/A Posted on - 09/20/2011

 

I recently downloaded the new Mozilla Firefox browser from the Mozilla website. The version of the browser is 6.0.2.  I Installed the browser and it was working fine. After two days now, I am facing a strange issue. Whenever I open more than two tabs on the browser,  the browser crashes and my OS asks me to send an error report to Microsoft. Is my OS faulty? or the new browser?

FireFox crashes on opening three tabs.

Hi!

     If your mozilla is crashing when you open more than three tabs, it means the files of Firefox might have been corrupted in the process of installing.  When the files get corrupted,  it only installs few features of Mozilla Firefox. So, try to repair the Mozilla Firefox or uninstall it.  Install it again.  This will solve the crashing problem.

FireFox crashes on opening three tabs.

 

Mozilla Firefox can crash unexpectedly if the plugins are out of date. Go to the site below in order to update the plugins.

https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/plugincheck/

if this does not help; try updating the drivers, check for malwares that are interrupting. If still it crashes check your browser by turning it into safe mode. 

It won’t crash in safe mode; if it does again it is not because of Mozilla's extension, theme or hardware acceleration. There is something else that’s creating it.
