Firefox(64.0) has issues loading OWA webmail and my university's academic sites. Logging into office.com is fine, but when opening the actual outlook webmail it loops trying to authenticate. It also has issues loading academic sites and will not let me even log in to another site. The site that doesn't log in will take credentials, but then just refreshes the page and then asks for credentials again. The other site will load but in a broken state with a weird loading icon at the top that I've never seen and is not present on other browsers on this system.

This is a fresh install of windows 10 educational and is completely up to date. I have a laptop with Firefox 64.0 installed and it has no issues loading these sites.

I'm lost. I've tried everything I can think of. Cleared cache, tried in safemode w/ no addons, reinstalled, rebooted after reinstall, enabled ipv6 dns, ensured windows is up to date, rebooted router, flushed dns...

Any ideas?

Thanks.

I believe I've fixed the issue. Trying random things, I looked at my system clock and noticed the actual time was correct for my time zone, but was set to a different timezone. Weird. Changed to my time zone and that put the time too far forward. Deselected the option for windows to set the time automatically. Re-enabled windows to set the time automatically. Time synced up correctly with proper time zone.

Now the sites load properly. (╯°□°）╯︵ ┻━┻
