I do love me the auto updates. Firefox did an update over the weekend and it crashed the browser and lost the tabs of all the stuff I was looking at. Yay!

Hello, go from 3-bar menu > Options > Advanced panel > Update tab > Firefox updates > choose the Check for updates, but let me choose whether to install them > OK > exit firefox and restart it.

thank you

If you have submitted crash reports then please post the IDs of one or more recent crash reports that have a "bp-" prefix:

  • bp-xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx

You can find the Report ID of recent crash reports on the "Help > Troubleshooting Information" page (about:support).

  • Click the "All Crash Reports" button on this page to open the about:crashes page and see all crash reports.

If necessary then you can open about: pages via the location/address bar.
