As of 4pm est 2/8/22, firefox was working fine, it updated around 10PM and has been broken ever since. I can't even get it to open except for right after a full computer restart. when it does open it's just a gray screen, can't even go into the settings. websites don't load. refreshing does nothing. reinstalling and refreshing does nothing. I don't even get an error message. chrome works. IE works. nothing on my end has changed. I have 2 extensions. ublock origin, and web shield. I've turned both on and off with no effect. I let it go for a day to see if it's something on mozilla's end, nothing doing. it's now 4pm est 2/9/22 and the problem still exists.

I run windows 10 home version 21H1, with full up to date drivers. that hasn't changed.

this only started when it updated to the most recent update.

When attempting to load websites in firefox, i enter a URL into the address bar and hit enter and then... Nothing. It's like Firefox isn't even attempting to begin a connection to websites. I have tried multiple uninstall/reinstalls of the program, I have removed all extensions I can, I've attempted clearing my cache, none of these things worked. the version I have installed is 97.0.

This is what I have done so far:

I have done a full OS refresh of Windows 10.

Used Revo Uninstaller to remove all program files, Registry items.

Deleted all App data for every User account.

Re-installed Firefox with a fresh installer.

What happens:

After installing Firefox it will open once, and only once.

If I close it at any point, it will never open again unless I re-install it.

It will not open in Safe Firefox Safe mode (Holding shift) It will not open in Windows 10 Safe Mode It will not open with my firewall completely disabled my anti-virus uninstalled & off It will not open after restarting my PC It will not open after refreshing my OS again It will not open after Administrator Command Prompt ipconfig /flushdns It will not open after Administrator Command Prompt netsh winsock reset (And restarting) It will not open after clicking refresh re-installing it It will not open after deleting all extensions/cookies/profiles (again) It will not open after deleting all contents of the start-up folder. firefox.exe -p does not open or work

Firefox will only open -ONCE- immediately after re-installing it, I do not know what other options I have besides literally doing a clean install of my entire operating system.

I will get background processes when I try to open Firefox as if it's open, I've already tried closing them then opening again but the program still doesn't open.

I'm at the point where if I want to use firefox, I have to run the installer & it will open then I can use firefox until I close it then I have to run the installer again for it to open.

Literally everything works except for Firefox, I can run every program, game, stream/record video, etc. I have been bending over backwards doing everything I can to see if something else was going on, if anyone has any troubleshooting, I can try outside of what I've already done so far please let me know I'd like to resolve this without having to restore my entire PC for just firefox.

This morning I launched Firefox on my PC by opening a link in discord, I was greeted with a blank page, the link showed up in the search-bar and the tab icon shows up, but there was no content whatsoever on the rest of the page. I tried restoring my last browsing session, and all tabs where similarly blank. Attached an image of what I see on a new tab page as well as any other page. The only settings menu I was able to open was "more troubleshooting info" page, by which i mean it is the only thing that actually loaded any content. Things I have tried: -Refreshing Firefox. It seem to go through the process, but when it is done the pages are similarly blank. -Uninstalling, then reinstalling. I reset my computer after uninstalling and then re-downloaded Firefox, same results. -Logging out of Firefox. I didn't really expect this to do anything but tried just in case. -Refreshing the cashe. I used the shortcut to open the browser history clear, and cleared cookies and cashe. -Opening Firefox in safe mode, has the same issue. -Used my anti-malware Webroot Security to check my computer for malware, nothing turned up. -Re-allowing Firefox through windows firewall. Did this by removing it from the list of allowed programs, then adding it again. -Ensuring my compatibility preferences didn't have anything selected. -Through the troubleshooting page I was able to access the about:config page (this page would not load if i opened a new tab and typed in about:config, ONLY if I changed the URL from about:support, the only page i could load, to about:config) and ensuring that browser.newtabpage.enabled was set to true.

Firefox is working perfectly fine on my laptop, and I was working last night on my PC, the only difference being that was a small windows update. It has never done this before.

I am setting up new laptop running windows 10. I have installed Firefox browser several times with same result. Once installed Firefox will not launch reliably. If I restart computer, firefox will sometimes launch. Very frustrated, have used Firefox for 10 years on several machines with no issues. I am running Firefox 96.03 on a different laptop with no issues. Can I upload an older version of Firefox on my new laptop or can you help me fix the new version so it will work?

Since Firefox updated today I have had 2 issues.

The first issue is the biggest issue and the most frustrating.

I open a tab from a link on a page (both ctrl-click and right-click - new tab). As I'm going through each tab after opening multiple tabs, there are a few tabs that are just blank. The URL is in the address bar, but that's all. The button to reload is greyed out. I can't reload the URL. I can't do anything. I have to copy the URL, close the tab, bring up a new tab, and paste the URL. Then it will load.

This is random and doesn't happen to the same URL. Just randomly I have to copy paste a URL to open it in a new tab again.

The 2nd issue I had, and for me a minor one, it took me forever to log into support with my firefox account. It froze up a couple times after clicking the sign in button under my name and account. Eventually, I close the tab and when I came back to try again, viola, I was already logged in.

Dear Sir:

   Over the past two days I have had problems with Foxfire browser not opening websites.  I have cleared history, refreshed, uninstalled and reinstalled the browser several times. This is a problem with both my laptop and my desktop. The desktop will not even arrive at the opening screen.  Microsoft Edge works.  AOL works. I have screened for viruses.  The tabs are blank and they keep churning.
     I am running Windows 10 on both computers. I have gone thru the Control panel series of steps to make sure Foxfire is enabled properly with Windows 10 firewall.
     I can get to the opening screen of Foxfire, but none of my bookmarks work.
    For instance, I can sometimes access Yahoo Finance, but only when I open and close tabs that don't work several times using the box links to the several common websites featured in the opening screen for Foxfire. When I do the same routine with the Pocket recommended links the tabs open but just keep churning.
   When I try to open Fidelity.com, neither clearing history, nor accessing through a Google Search nor from my favorite meets with any success. I've tried every means I know to open Fidelity.
      Appreciate any suggestions.       Michael W. Styga

Since the newest firefox update to version 97, when I open firefox all it shows me are blank tabs. It doesn't load any websites and when I restart it, it doesn't even show that it's loading a website either - it's just blank (and then I also can't access settings). I tried everything that is out there. I tried opening it in troubleshoot mode, I even reinstalled it, I checked for java and adobe flash players, I cleared all history. Sometimes it also just doesn't open when I try to. Is there anything I am missing that might help me get my beloved firefox back?

For the last 3 days I have been unable to connect to net via Firefox.

I've changed nothing on my end, so don't know what the problem could be.

Prior to 2/09/2022 everthing was working as it should. Now when I try to log on the only think I get is a blank screen with just the Firefox logo in upper left corner and blank search box.

Have tried uninstall/reinstall. Don't know what else I can do. It shows that the firewall is allowing access. I can access net via IE or other site, just not via Firefox.

Would deeply appreciate any help that can be offered.

Thanks in advance.
