Functions Disabled in Browser

Within the last few days, I've noticed I'm losing functionality in certain online apps through the Firefox browser.

When I'm on Instagram, I can't check direct messages: the function stalls out without resolving.

In Gmail, I'm unable to embed an image in an email. I can attach it like normal, but the embed button doesn't respond.

In Starry AI, I'm unable to use any menu options at all, I'm stuck at being logged into the account and can't logout, check my settings, or request help. I receive this message: "Application error: a client-side exception has occurred (see the browser console for more information)"

When I follow up on this, I get this pop-up message: Resource of last-private-context-exit is missing a browsingContextID or innerWindowId attribute resource-command.js:917:13

Chosen solution

Start Firefox in Troubleshoot Mode to check if one of the extensions ("3-bar" menu button or Tools -> Add-ons -> Extensions) or if hardware acceleration or if userChrome.css/userContent.css is causing the problem.

  • switch to the Default System theme: "3-bar" menu button or Tools -> Add-ons -> Themes
  • do NOT click the "Refresh Firefox" button on the Troubleshoot Mode start window

Try to set these prefs to false in about:config.

  • browser.opaqueResponseBlocking => false
  • browser.opaqueResponseBlocking.javascriptValidator => false

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

Do you have policies enabled?

You can open the about:policies page to see if policies are active and if errors are reported.
