Why, why must it crash every single time I open a PDF?

It doesn't crash, it just takes a couple minutes to load and won't let you do anything else in FF while it is loading. It doesn't stop you from using other programs while it's loading the PDF software.

Why does it take so doggone long to launch?

Because you didn't install it correctly. I have never had this problem.

Really, most writers endeavor to conceal rather than advertise their ineptitude in their field of alleged expertise.
