Anything I try and download instantly fails. I have no add-ons, tried resetting Firefox, and even disabled my AV. Other browsers can still download files, but Firefox is unable to. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Had a look at my Microsoft parental controls and didn't even know it was on. Turning off the restrictions and rebooting the PC fixed the problem, thank you!
