hi ronald.coutinho, thanks for providing a crash id. unfortunately this crash is caused by the websense/forcepoint security software that is running on your device.

i presume that's in a corporate environment - please get in contact with your it department to make sure that websense is fully up to date, as it has the tendency to crash newly released firefox versions until they adapt accordingly.

another option would be to install an esr version of firefox: Old versions of Websense cause startup crashes in Firefox

Hi Phillip,

Thanks for your help in nailing the issue.

I contacted the IT dept and have updated them to make sure the endpoint websense is fully updated. The issue was with version's greater than 50.0

However was able to download older version 49 with update disabled.
