Which security software (firewall, anti-virus) do you have?

Make sure that you fully allow Firefox and that no content gets blocked.

Are you using cleanup software like CCleaner to clear personal data in the Firefox profile folder?

Cache and cookies shouldn't get corrupted and require to clear them often. It might be necessary after Firefox has updated.

You can try to reload web page(s) and bypass the cache to refresh possibly outdated or corrupted files if it happens again.

  • Hold down the Shift key and left-click the Reload button
  • Press "Ctrl + F5" or press "Ctrl + Shift + R" (Windows,Linux)
  • Press "Command + Shift + R" (Mac)
