If yes, you might have come across an instance where the browser suddently freezes or hangs or crashes and closes down unexpectedly or collapses into a not responding mode.<\/p>\n<p>Freezing or Hanging is a process where a program stops responding to a user\u2019s input. A hang or a freeze is different from a crash. A Crash ends the program, and the windows automatically shuts down. The reasons can be many. It could the installation of incompatible themes, extensions or programming errors in plugins. I am suggesting below some troubleshooting steps which you could follow in case you find that your Firefox is giving you problems in Windows.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Firefox Freezes or Crashes<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Clear Firefox Browser Cache, History and Download History<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>*<\/strong>Files take longer to download as the download history builds up. To fix up this freeze, go to Firefox menu, then \u2018Downloads\u2019 and click on \u2018Clear List\u2019 to clear the Download History.<\/p>\n<p><strong>*<\/strong>Also, if the folder where Firefox is attempting to save the file is not accessible, it can freeze.<\/p>\n<p><strong>*<\/strong>Try resetting the browser.download.lastDir preference in about:config. You can also try choosing a new download folder in your Firefox settings <em>(Tools -> Options -> General ( or Main) \/ Downloads -> Save files to -> Browse).<\/em><\/p>\n<p><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.pcmatic.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/Clear-download-history-2-600x351.jpg\" alt=\"fix firefox freezes and crashes\" title=\"fix firefox freezes and crashes\" width=\"550\" height=\"351\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-31357\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>*<\/strong>At times Browsing History interferes with the browser start-up and therefore can hang Firefox for indefinite periods.<\/p>\n<p><strong>*<\/strong>Clear the History to avoid this instance. For this, first go to Tools > \u2018Clear Recent History\u2018 to see if it resolves the problem.<\/p>\n<p><strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.thewindowsclub.com\/firefox-freezes-crashes-hangs\">Read more here<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>This excerpt is shared with permission from The Windows Club.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/techtalk.pcpitstop.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/fix_firefox.jpg\" alt=\"fix firefox crashes and freezes\" title=\"fix firefox crashes and freezes\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-31365\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Are you a Firefox user?
