This page isn't redirecting properly (at wits' end)
For a couple of months, I've been getting the error message "This page isn't redirecting properly" whenever I use Firefox. The problem doesn't seem to happen when I'm clicking on a bookmark, a saved link in Firefox's history, or a Google search result, but it happens almost every time when there is some sort of redirect involved (for example, from a link in an email newsletter to the linked website, or from a login/authentication page to the website's main page). This used to clear up after hitting "Try again" four or five times, but this week it's become stuck in an infinite loop, making some websites unusable.
I've tried the following: - Clearing cookies and cache for specific websites - Clearing cookies and cache for the entire browser - Starting Firefox in troubleshooting mode to see if the problem is with a specific extension - Deleting Firefox entirely and redownloading it - Deleting the cookies.sqlite, cookies.sqlite-shm and cookies.sqlite-wal files and restoring from a manual backup as per this answer (https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1403719)
None of those have fixed the problem. Does anyone have any other ideas of what to do here? I am frustrated and out of ideas.

You can check the connection settings in case you use a Proxy or VPN service.
- Settings -> General -> Network: Connection -> Settings
If you do not need to use a Proxy to connect to internet, select "No Proxy" if "Use the system proxy settings" or one of the others do not work properly.

You can create a new profile as a quick test to see if your current profile is causing the problem.
See "Creating a profile":
If the new profile works, you can transfer files from a previously used profile to the new profile, but be careful not to copy corrupted files to avoid carrying over problems.
Hi cor-el,
Thank you for the help and suggestions. The problem recurred after I logged myself out of my profile, but I realized I hadn't tried to refresh Firefox yet, so I did that and it worked. It has continued to work properly even after I reinstalled my add-ons, so I guess that wasn't the issue. Unsure what it was, but it's working fine now. I appreciate your time and aid.
