I am having an issue with not being able to make a payment on a specific site: www.walmart.com since upgrading to Firefox 76/77.

I am using:

Windows 7 on desktop PC


When on Walmart.com with items in the shopping cart, I have the option to "proceed to checkout." This usually loads a new screen in the same tab - not a pop up box.

This time, however, I only got a white screen with continually spinning circle.

Attempted fixes:

Verified with Walmart that they could indeed access my checkout Verified that I could access the checkout in another browser, Internet Explorer Tried turning off enhanced tracking protection cleared cookies Disabled ad blocker Unchecked Block Pop Up windows re-checked Block Pop Up windows and created exception for www.walmart.com Upgraded to Firefox 77

None of the above had any effect.

I have no Add-ons to disable. I'm running a pretty basic system.

I was finally able to make my purchase on a different computer that was still running Firefox 75. Thus, I have narrowed the problem down to the upgrades of Firefox 76 and beyond.

I was also able to make a purchase on a different site using Firefox 76, but I don't recall if that site needed to load a new screen for checkout. Still, www.walmart.com will not cooperate. Any ideas what else could be blocking this particular site?

Remove History For One Site

Open the History Manager <Control><Shift> H. In the search bar, enter the name of the site. Right-click on one of the listings and select Forget About This Site. This should remove all information, including any settings.

  • Unfortunately, this did not solve the problem

Start Firefox in Safe Mode {web link}

A small dialog should appear. Click Start In Safe Mode (not Refresh). Is the problem still there?
