Your browser keeps crashing or tabs keep dying
Browser crashes happen when you're running out of memory or an extension is broken. Close all the tabs you don't need right now, turn off any extensions you don't use regularly, and restart the browser. If it's still crashing, try clearing your browser cache — that fixes it for most people.
Your browser crashes when it runs out of memory, when an extension breaks something, or when a website has a problem that makes the browser struggle. The fastest fixes are closing extra tabs, disabling broken extensions, and clearing old data that's piling up. If it's one specific website causing the problem, the browser is protecting itself by shutting that tab down instead of letting it take down everything.
Fix-IT-Bot will walk you through each step — just tap, no typing needed.
Skip — I just want a technicianCommon mistakes to avoid
- Thinking the problem is one website when it's actually an extension — test with Incognito mode first to narrow it down
- Turning off all extensions and forgetting to turn one back on — they're turned off for testing, not permanently
- Not restarting the browser after making changes — new settings don't always take effect until you close and reopen
Signs you need professional help
- Your browser crashes constantly even after you've closed all the tabs and disabled all extensions
- Every single website crashes the browser, not just one — this is probably a deeper problem with your browser installation
- The browser crashes while doing normal things and you're losing work every time
