Is it reproducible with a fresh profile and a small history? https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/profile-manager-create-and-remove-firefox-profiles

With SMALL history all is ok. With a BIG history it is reproducible even with clean profile. When it happens (closing FF) I have to paste my old profile (backup), because this kind crash let the profile to get corrupt. Very bad. I am a bit worried. But if you delete History Once per week, all is ok.

Almost sure it's a duplicate of bug 1215885. Does this still reproduce?

It happened again. workaround: dlear history more frequent. not good.

In short: unchecking clean history at shutdown > all is ok checking clean history > I have to manually kill firefox.exe to get a plugincontainer.exe crash. Always reproducible.

no crash report available, starting from today the profile is not destroyed, bacause I self "have to" kill firefox.exe.

Build ID: 20151210030212 User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.0; rv:45.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/45.0 I have tested this on Win Vista with FF Nightly45 and I can't reproduce this problem. I know that you have an another bug 1158482 and you have installed Nightly, can you test this problem to?

the history should be long, plese wait at least ome month. with a short history even here by me all is ok ;)

(( OT: the biggest issue is https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1222272 this is a blocker. all the required attachments seem unuseful, I ask to myself what could be useful, other than to ship my PC to Mozilla, par avion ;) ))

I've spent a lot of time researching the cause of my crashes in nightly 47 and release 43/44. Every time i exit (or restart with an extension), it hangs (by 'it' i mean both, nightly and release) and then crash report window shows. I created numerous profiles, reinstalled both clean twice! with the same result. Was thinking it was something on my computer (using Vista, no problems other that this one) but this last time i decided to check every step i take. It's a clean Nighty of today. I always started with setting Options. I restarted after every little change. As soon as i checked Clear Search and Form history, Nightly hung and crash report showed up. I UNchecked the option and it restarted fine. I checked the option and ... yes, it hung again. Here's what i see under 'App Notes' in about:crashes: AdapterVendorID: 0x10de, AdapterDeviceID: 0x104a, AdapterSubsysID: 26163842, AdapterDriverVersion: 10.18.13.6175 FP(D000-L100000-W00000000-T0000) D2D1.1? D2D1.1- D3D11 Layers? D3D11 Layers+ xpcom_runtime_abort([Parent 4788] ###!!! ABORT: file chrome://browser/content/sanitize.js, line 787) I see conversation above about large/small history. This is a new clean install and i had 1 AMO tab open and 1 userstyles.org forum, i had Options and Addons manager tabs open + those 2 default tabs that open on fresh nightly install where closed. That's it, doesn't seem like a lot of history would accumulate from this. I had the same result before right off the start, that is 2 default tabs and Options tab. My crashes here: the last one: https://crash-stats.mozilla.com/report/index/d2874899-bc27-410d-b8bb-bc6f72160219 https://crash-stats.mozilla.com/report/index/c67bff59-32f2-4d01-9305-cee322160219 https://crash-stats.mozilla.com/report/index/7a9d7043-bc14-4918-9ecc-d30f72160219

Are you still hanging with today's Nightly? I'm looking for help/steps to reproduce these hangs and finally figure out what's up. The big history problem is likely bug 871908. For now I'm excluding the issue with big history, I care about cases where we hang even with a small history or with clear history on shutdown set (so history is just for the session). Any help is appreciated.

it's probably the effect of bug 1244650 that made us properly wait on shutdown :( I'm investigating this on Beta.

bug 1250363 should have helped here.

I think this has been fixed with bug 1250424.
