Since upgrading to Firefox Quantum there are several sites that will no longer show the comments section. I have no adblockers running and privacy is set at recommended settings, but I have "played" with those as well. I know this is a Firefox specific problem, as Chrome and Edge have absolutely no problem with these sites showing the comments sections.

BTW, I say "sites" as they are various and, as is shown with Edge and Chrome, it is NOT a site-specific problem, so if I say it is one site or 20 sites, the problem remains with Firefox, not the site(s).

This is getting really old.

Any ideas?

Thanks!

Please give this a try : uninstall Firefox. Then Delete the Mozilla Firefox Folders in C:\Program Files , C:\Program Files(x86) & C:\ProgramData Then restart system. Then run Windows Disk Cleanup. (Note: This should be Pinned and run Weekly, If never done below expect 10's of gig's) Then run it again and click the button that says Cleanup System Files. Note: your Firefox Profile is saved. But you should make a back up before you do :

Reinstall with Current Release Firefox 59.0 with a Full Version Installer
