When closing my Firefox window, all processes are not closing requiring me to open task manager and kill the process before using Firefox again. Received recent upgrade and hasn't worked right since then.

I open Firefox, use it, then close the window. Try to reopen Firefox and it fails with a message that a previous process is still running. Requires me to open Task Manager and kill the old process.

Try to wait a bit longer before reopening Firefox to give Firefox more time to close completely.
Try to use "Firefox/File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit") to close Firefox if you are currently doing that by clicking the close X on the title bar.

See "Hang at exit":

Tried that. Didn't work. I get a message window telling that I still have an instance of Firefox running. I then have to kill the process in Task Manager.

Did you look at the links to the Knowledge Base article that I posted above for more suggestions?

Didn't see the section at the end relating to my problem. Seem as though the article was about something different. The Java add-on were the problem. Thanks
