Where did you hear it is resolved? I don't believe that is true - https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1959858 is very much still in progress.

I stated as much in https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1507156. The discussion should continue there in your original post, rather than start this new post.

I forgot there are multiple bug reports on this issue. And that you have other questions posted in the support forum. So I think best to continue in https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1507156

Please note this is not a space problem, even though the error suggests it might be. Nor is it a memory problem
