Details

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.3; WOW64; rv:49.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/49.0 Build ID: 20161019084923 Steps to reproduce: Installed/upgraded to 50.0 on Windows Actual results: On first run after upgrade, it worked fine. On each subsequent launch, it hung with a single, unresponsive and blank tab open. Reinstalling did not fix the problem ... it was only fixed after I deleted all the Mozilla folders in the AppData subdirectories, and then reinstalled. However, it only worked once, and then froze with the same, empty, unresponsive single tab. I did not install any addins. Downgrading to 49.0 fixed the problem. Expected results: It shouldn't just hang when i open the application.
