Are you saying you want me to send them to firefox or you directly or post in this forum or what? I am asking if there has been a lot of crashes lately.
@Dog3456
There havent been an abundant amount of crashes that I have seen thus far over the last 24 hours. Have you installed any new programs recently? What version of Windows are you running (1809/1909/2004)? Are you able to run Mozilla to the point to check what version of FF you are running?

Basically, an OOM (Out Of Memory) means the system is having issues with the RAM.

MemTest LAST UPDATED : 12/04/2020
Could you please run a tool from http://memtest.org/
in order to check the integrity of your RAM?
You will need a thumb or disk drive to install it on.
Do you let Windows handle the page file or did you set a fixed size ?
Control Panel -> System -> Advanced -> Performance -> Settings
If you use a fixed size for the page file then try the former and let Windows handle the page file. How to determine the appropriate page file size for 64-bit versions of Windows {web link}
So it seems you want me to download some software and physically open my computer and test each RAM stick one by one and replace the broken one? Just a note, other browsers are causing crashes too and occasionally other programs (e.g. word processor, spreadsheet, etc.)
I did go to Control Panel -> System -> Advanced System Settings (right column)-> Advanced tab-> Performance box ->Settings
and it was already on "Let Windows choose..."
Also this is a refurbished desktop if that matters

No. The software does that for you.

That doesn't mean it doesn't have any issues.

I understand that I don't have to be able look at the RAM stick and tell myself if it is broken, but what I am saying you want me to physically open my computer, take one stick, run software, see if error message comes up, then repeat with other sticks?. In other words, it is not as simple as solely changing a setting or something.

What you do is run the program. Do Not open the computer. If problems are reports, then you may have to replace something.

I'm not sure how more recent reports would be different. Also, as I said before it crashes with multiple browsers and multiple programs. Not jus firefox.
The recent reports would be different because they both identify a problem with the currently supported version (ie. if this is fixable, it can be fixed), as each version includes stability updates. This also allows us to see what is causing you to crash right now, as opposed to what caused you to crash a month or two ago.

I ran the program and there doesn't seem to be a problem that shows up, but I know the crashes are getting more frequent. Here are pictures of memtest..

Odd that any one of 3 top 10 contributors didn't respond in the past week.
