I am a long time Firefox user, having moved to Firefox from Netscape in the late 2000s. I have been very happy, but this latest issue has really been frustrating.

I am on a Windows 10 PC, and using the lates Firefox. It loads fine and works fine for 10 minutes or so and then just stops working. I can access menus, but if I click on a link - whether from the current page or a bookmark - nothing happens. It will not connect any longer and I need to shut down and restart. I can open a new tab, but nothing will load in the new tab.

I have tried everything. If I load in safe mode to remove all extensions - same issue. I did a refresh - same issue. I uninstalled and reinstalled - same issue. I removed my antivirus program (Malwarebytes) - same issue. I uninstalled my VPN program (Windscribe) - same issue. I have been searching for solutions and tried a number oft things like disabling hardware acceleration - same issue. (I have reinstalled those programs as removing them did not fix the issue and it did work with them previously.)

Any thoughts on what else it could possible be?
