The details of the error are: An error occurred during a connection to doc-0g-68-docs.googleusercontent.com. 

   This problem can sometimes be caused by disabling or refusing to accept cookies.

Steps I've tried: - Disable content blocking - Uninstall/reinstall Firefox - Forget about this site

I've seen that this is a problem with many users in the past, however none of the solutions have worked for me. Windows 10 has just been installed today and drivers are all up to date. I don't have any anti-virus installed. Just vanilla Windows Defender. Any ideas what could be going on?

You can try to allow all cookies temporarily including third-party cookies to see if that has effect.

If you use permanent Private Browsing mode (Always use Private Browsing mode; Never Remember History) then try to use normal mode.

If you use extensions ("3-bar" menu button or Tools -> Add-ons -> Extensions) that can block (wanted) content (Adblock Plus, NoScript, Disconnect, Ghostery, Privacy Badger, uBlock Origin) always make sure such extensions do not block (wanted) content.

cor-el, thank you for the response. None of the mentioned suggestions worked. Though, I'm not sure I was able to completely disable content blocking. The option to stop blocking content on this site is not available. The most I could do is switch to custom and uncheck trackers and cookies. This has no effect on the problem.
