I can't reproduce this issue. Anyone?

Please provide detailed information about your setup: OS, antivirus, internet security, exact version of Pale Moon, add-ons you have installed, which tabs you have open when the crash occurs, etc.

@access2godzilla, no problem here either, unfortunately it looks like something specific to your setup, so yes more info. required.

Unable to reproduce this issue with 20.0.1 on XP/SP3, Vista/SP2 or Win7/SP1.

Only recent(ish) similar report is this now RESOLVED FIXED bug #708248 - Comment #3 "Open about:memory - Actual Results: Browser crashes" - somewhat confused discussion as to whether the then current version of Stylish Add-on was implicated? As no one else can recreate your problem it might just be worth trying Safe Mode - does opening about:memory then cause a crash?

BTW it seems a new style of "about:memory" page is on the way: https://blog.mozilla.org/nnethercote/

It crashes for me too. There must be some issues with some addons. Do you have languaje pack installed and what add-ons do you have?
