Mozilla is rolling out
a small patch for the recently released Firefox 137. Version 137.0.1 is now available for download, and it fixes three important bugs. Two of them cause the browser to crash on Windows, while the third messes with the way Firefox treats folder shortcuts.
Mozilla says the update should address crashes on Windows systems with Qihoo 360 antivirus software and "occasional crashes" on startup. The bug with folder shortcuts prevents files from being selected within the target folders. It was also fixed in version 137.0.1.
In case you missed it, Mozilla released Firefox 137 on April 1. The update was quite a big one, and it introduced some much-requested changes, such as tab groups, a refreshed address bar (it can now work as a calculator), HEVC playback on Linux, PDF signing, and more. You can update Firefox by heading to Menu > Help > About Firefox. Alternatively, get the browser
from the official website or
the Microsoft Store (if you are on Windows 10 and 11).
