Firefox added message to event log, but doesn't crash.

Firefox keeps on adding an application error to the event log. Looks like this

Faulting application name: firefox.exe, version: 43.0.4.5848, time stamp: 0x568c7b1d
Faulting module name: unknown, version: 0.0.0.0, time stamp: 0x00000000
Exception code: 0xc0000005
Fault offset: 0x2dd3fa00
Faulting process id: 0x7c4
Faulting application start time: 0x01d15306e882dfdc
Faulting application path: D:\Software\Firefox\firefox.exe
Faulting module path: unknown
Report Id: 683011b7-befb-11e5-b34d-fcaa14e790ee

Firefox is not crashing though, it works fine it just keeps adding that to the event log. It seems like it gets added when firefox is opened, but not all the time. Maybe a couple of times a week if that and firefox is opened and closed far more frequently.

Pretty much all the entries are when a family member is using it, but they say it doesn't crash and insist they are not doing anything, so I dunno if maybe they have something open that I don't at the same time as firefox.

Any ideas? Just firefox that generates that, nothing else. Install has adp+greasemonkey+noscript and classic theme.

, seems unless it's a nvida/amd argument thread, no one cares.

Anyway, I found out what's generating them.

It's when the website deposit files is used. I'm not sure if it's the download from there triggering them or just the site. But no errors for a week, grab something from depositfiles and the event log has that error. It's not crashing though, so still not sure what is going on, just the cause of it.

bump. Really nothing, nothing at all?

Tried uninstalling, reinstalling. Still generates the above occasionally.

Honestly I don't think anyone knows what it could be.

Could try asking here: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/get-community-support

meh, have to make another account then for a single question

. Oh well.

It's definitely not crashing though. The last entry that was added I was by the pc, so saw it didn't crash, also all the firefox entries lack a faulting module path. This is rocket league for example, which actually did crash (not an issue just to me, crashing for lots of people since the patch)

Faulting application name: RocketLeague.exe, version: 1.0.10897.0, time stamp: 0x56b929de
Faulting module name: RocketLeague.exe, version: 1.0.10897.0, time stamp: 0x56b929de
Exception code: 0xc0000005
Fault offset: 0x0014f191
Faulting process id: 0x74c
Faulting application start time: 0x01d16461d92dbd2e
Faulting application path: D:\Games\Steam\steamapps\common\rocketleague\Binaries\Win32\RocketLeague.exe
Faulting module path: D:\Games\Steam\steamapps\common\rocketleague\Binaries\Win32\RocketLeague.exe
Report Id: 1da320d6-d055-11e5-935b-fcaa14e790ee

And you can see it has an actual faulting module name, firefox, which adds but does not crash, always has a blank faulting name.

Just annoying that the stupid fanboy threads end up 20 pages long, and actual problems, no one knows

That is some seriously obscure shiznit that only firefox developers are going to be able to answer. You must know that.

Thought someone might know, considering how many users here are experts on X and constantly trying to one up each other especially in GD, thought someone might step in.

I'll go ask on the firefox support thing then.
