I can open firefox and it is fine, but as soon as i try and search from the google tab or enter any web address in the web address bar it crashes. Everytime, every website. Nothing works.

I have tried deleting firefox and my profile and re-installing both firefox and my profile. I have tried windows update, i have tried safe mode (still crashes in safe mode), i have updated all the plugins to the latest version.

The only thing that works is if i log out of my windows profile and then log in as administrator and it works in the administrator profile

The Reset Firefox feature can fix many issues by restoring Firefox to its factory default state while saving your essential information. Note: This will cause you to lose any Extensions, Open websites, and some Preferences.

To Reset Firefox do the following:

  1. Go to Firefox > Help > Troubleshooting Information.
  2. Click the "Reset Firefox" button.
  3. Firefox will close and reset. After Firefox is done, it will show a window with the information that is imported. Click Finish.
  4. Firefox will open with all factory defaults applied.


Further information can be found in the Refresh Firefox - reset add-ons and settings article.
