How to see all the times firefox was closed?

Hi guys

I have windows 7 on a laptop. I usually have my email open in a regular firefox browser and everything else in a firefox incognito browser.

I need to know in the past 30 days, what days and times I have closed or opened firefox regular browser, and what days and times I have closed or opened firefox incognito browser. I am not sure if it's possible to distinguish between regular and incognito. if not, then I would settle for knowing what days and times I closed or opened any firefox browser.

in the past 30 days my laptop  froze and restarted on its own once. I also need to know what day and time that was.

I don't know anything about windows event logs but I am good at following instructions.

Hi, Welcome to BC.

I think this would be over your head : https://firefox-source-docs.mozilla.org/devtools-user/browser_console/index.html  and not sure have the right thing myself.

If want to figure out what happen supply the info, if not keep it  and just do the MTB it should show date and time of unexpected browser shutdown, but not all and no idea if regular or private

Will also need to run asap so it does not copy over with other info.

I do know that sometimes a MTB Report will show unexpected browser shut down.  You could try it : Download Minitoolbox from the below link :
http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/download/minitoolbox/
  Run the tool and only select the following tick boxes.
    -List last 10 Event viewer errors
    -List installed programs
    -List devices
    -List users, partition and memory size
Now click "Go" and Copy/Paste and post the output text in your next reply

Please Post a "link" of Speccy Report.
Please install Speccy Free : https://m.majorgeeks.com/files/details/speccy.html
Use Custom Install
  At the Top Left Corner of Speccy --> Click File and then Click Publish Snapshot Report, a window will popup and Click YES. --> Another popup will appear and then Click "Copy To Clipboard" then Paste that "link" to your next reply in your thread.

As well there is Event Viewer : https://www.windowscentral.com/how-use-event-viewer-windows-10 /11   Will be more or less the same for Win7

Click on Find in Right Panel type Firefox in the Find Box

I do not like Firefox, hate it. Had the browser for two days at the most due to an operating system problem. Firefox is said to be a safer and more secure browser than Chrome which very well may be. However there are too many hoops to jump through and the settings are layered and extensive. I prefer Google Chrome, sorry.
