I have a website that I frequently use that opens popups to display items to be printed. As it tries to open a popup, Firefox allows the popup to start then, in a fraction of a second, closes it. This does not happen in Edge and other browsers. YES, I have turned off Popup Blocking in Settings. YES, I have downloaded the latest version of Firefox. Any advice would be appreciated!

Hello Bob.

You may need to add this site to the Exceptions list in the Privacy & Security settings. I'll leave a link with instructions for updating that below. You also may want to check the extensions that you have. If you have a pop up blocker in your extensions this can also cause this issue.

I followed those instructions and the problem persists.
