Hello

Problems started after last Mozilla update. Web pages that auto-update/refresh with new info no longer working. Have to manually refresh. And eventually Mozilla will just hang up with no response-must hard restart laptop. Does anyone know what to do?

Version 108.0.1 64 bit

Windows 10 Home Ver 22H2 thank you Michele

Note that CSP is a security feature that you should leave set to true.


Older Firefox version had a "Warn me when website try to redirect or reload the page" checkbox in Settings that might be set to block reload/redirect in your case. Make sure this pref is set to false on the about:config page to disable this accessibility feature.

  • about:config => accessibility.blockautorefresh = false

You can open the about:config page via the location/address bar. On the warning page, you can click "Accept the Risk and Continue" to open about:config.

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