Safari no longer has a “preferences” selection in the Safari dropdown menu. I wanted to save passwords, etc. but could not figure out how to do it.

Firefox recently seems to be crashing randomly when I disconnect from VPN. At least I think it's crashing. This has maybe started a few weeks ago?
What happens is that when I disconnect from my VPN (ProtonVPN), I will randomly not be able to load any pages. If I go to any website, it will just get stuck loading forever. No timeout. I'm able to visit the browsers own pages like settings, some about: pages like about:performance, about:memory, etc.
Why I'm not sure if it's crashing is because the browser itself is not closing, I have to manually close the browser window. Once I close the window manually and wait a while, the crash reporter pops up. If I close the window manually then re-open it, theres a text prompt that shows up telling me Firefox is still open and if I want to close it to re-open Firefox.
I don't think it's the VPN's issue as when I disconnect from my VPN, applications other than Firefox work and have internet connectivity (a separate browser like Chrome, or discord, etc)
What I have tried:
I have the crash report details (from Firefox and Firefox Nightly) but unsure where best to upload or if it contains any sensitive data.
Maybe pasting this is fine? Both mention this at the last few lines of details: Winsock_LSP: Hyper-V RAW : 2 : 34 : 1 : 1 : 0x20026 : 0x8 : %SystemRoot%\system32\mswsock.dll : : 1234191b-4bf7-4ca7-86e0-dfd7c32b5445

XPCOMSpinEventLoopStack: default: nsHttpConnectionMgr::Shutdown
And I also see this for maybe why the browser itself doesn't "crash" MozCrashReason: Shutdown hanging at step AppShutdownNetTeardown. Something is blocking the main-thread.
If it's okay to share the crash reports then I can add them.

I have to click more than once to get almost everything.I have to do it in yahoo mail when I want to delete something or move it to a different folder,dropdown for firefox bookmarks. Even when playing a game I have to click an item in several times before it finally grabs item and I can use it It happens on FB when I click on a reel I want to see almost everything. It is driving me insane. I tried using Chrome just to see if it did the same thing and it does. Could this be a Dell problem? Of course my warranty is over.
