I updated to firefox 36 & the application crashes upon startup. I can start it in safe mode. I tried a clean install & still had the crashes.

I have 64bit alienware system running windows 7.

We're sorry to hear that your Firefox seems to be crashing when you open it. Please perform the following steps to give us a crash report ID that helps us find out more about the cause of the crash.

  1. On the keyboard, press [Windows] The image "Windows key" does not exist. + [R]. This should bring up a Run window that contains a text field.
  2. In that text field, type %APPDATA% and press Enter. An explorer window should open.
  3. From that explorer window, double-click on the Mozilla folder, then double-click on Firefox and then on Crash reports. Double-click on submitted.
  4. Now, you should see a list of files that contain reports. Go to View > Arrange Icons by > Modified to get the most recent files at the top of the window.
  5. Open the most recent 5 files with a text editor and copy the IDs.
  6. Paste each ID with bp- into the reply window on the forums.

Thanks in advance!

I didn't see this message until after I had messed with firefox this morning. I opened the program in safe mode & chose the "refresh firefox" option from the popup window. Things seem to be working now (but I still have some updating to do with flash & silverlight).
