I think each Firefox tab is a new process. It stops the whole thing crashing if one tab has issues.

Personally my first step would be to upgrade to windows 10. You can buy a licence for under a tenner or I think there may still be an option to upgrade for free.

Thanks for your feedback.
Unfortunately I need to keep it Win7 as there's some old (photo negative scanning) software that does not play with Windows 10.

Is it viable to dual boot Windows 7 and 10 keeping that scanning software on the Windows 7 partition and using Window 10 for pretty much everything else?

What's the scanning software? It's probably something you've tried already but would Vuescan work for you?
