Nope, is it an addon?! 

 

What ad-dons have you got?

This is also happening to me. It mostly crashes after I close firefox...which is a little odd and flashes up with the error report screen.

Have you tried just running it safe mode? does it still crash? If it dowsn't then it might be a theme or plugin causing the crashes.
Try turning off hardware acceleration? Over the years that has helped me in previous versions of Firefox.

Hi,


Does this still happen if you start Firefox in Safe Mode?


You can use one of these to start Firefox in Safe Mode:


  • On Windows, hold down the Shift key while starting Firefox with a double-click on the Firefox desktop shortcut
  • On Mac, hold down the Options key while starting Firefox
  • Help > Restart with Add-ons Disabled

I've had this issue where closing tab leaves empty space where it was for a short time or until I select another tab. I have other problems with opening links too but I think those are because I've messed with the advanced settings for them.
