Greetings to all,
I was curious about Mx and I'm trying it on a Dell E6410, core i5 64bit 8 giga of ram, MX21.3 on board, so far so good, I've been using it for 15 days, then an update arrives yesterday and firefox goes into crash, I reset firefox from troubleshooting, reinstalled TWP, web page translator, I'm Italian, installed ublock and autodele cookies as before and it often closes with an error message and relative log send crash to firefox, at this point not being a top in linux please what can be done to fix it
Looking forward to suggestions/advice, thanks.
Best regards to all here

Dear Edwin Rose In the meantime, thanks for answering me, and then I would like to clarify that I have been using mx 21.3 Wild Flower for about 2 weeks, and apart from some management differences from ubuntu mate which I used before, I have not had any problems, I switched to MX because I need many open firefox tabs and until yesterday I received updates never a problem, then I updated and from there the crashes were born ... Thanks in advance for the help ....
I forgot with this version of linux I had problems with the wifi card, it couldn't find my network, I had to change the wifi channel of the router from 13, set channel 3 and when I scan the wifi networks it puts channel 1 first despite the low signal and channel 2, my network with maximum signal only shows in 5th or 6th place, this is the only strange thing I found besides having to do two steps to save a screenshot..

I too am having issues with this latest version of FF on my MX19.4. I am tempted to uninstall it and reinstall the old version that was previous to this one. I realize it is not an MX issue but a Firefox one but now that I see I am not the only one, is there a fix or update in the works my fellow MXers?

I know I'm in the minority and wouldn't recommend this to others, but once I get Firefox and Thunderbird dialed in and configured just the way I what them, I lock them and don't update them until I'm forced to, which for me means until I update the OS (which is also something I don't do until I'm forced to).

@uncle mark You should add, "Children, please don't try this at home." Virtually all Firefox and Thunderbird updates have a huge number of security fixes. It's the nature of being out on the Internet. For example, here is a link to the current batch of fixes in 110.0:

I don't use firefox, but has anyone looked on their forums yet, as it is a firefox issue?

Same here, the last update of Firefox keeps crashing.
