Start your Computer in safe mode with network support. Then start Firefox. Try Secure websites. Is the problem still there?

I can download in safe mode. But not in normal mode. I tried to disable the addons but it doesnt seem working.

Safe Mode is a troubleshooting mode that temporarily turns off hardware acceleration, resets some settings, and disables add-ons (extensions and themes). If the problem goes away, that tells us one thing. If it does not, that tells us something else.

I reinstalled windows and then freasly installed firefox. Problem still goes on.
It is possible that (anti-virus) security software is causing the problem. Try to disable security software temporarily to see if that makes a difference.
I have windows defender. I tried to close everything firewall and stuff and didnt make any change. Guys im about to switch my browser after using it for years. I don't wanna do that. Somebody help me please

I dont know why but i couldnt connect to the internet in safe mode. So that also did not work...
safe mode with network support?
What is that going to solve? I even reinstalled the whole windows and freashly installed firefox. Why am i the only one experiencing this? Hello? Any developer gives a damn? What kind of a problem is that? Also my sync is broken.. nothing came back.
In most computers, there are several types of Safe Mode. The primary ones used most are;
- Safe Mode: Only programs that came with the computer are started. No other programs will be started unless the user starts them.
- Safe Mode with Networking: Same as above but the network drivers (internet) will also be running.
This is a way to test if one of the other programs on the computer is causing the issue.
Alright i tried that and it downloads in safe mode like it does in firefox safe mod. I guess we have a hint now. What seems to be the problem now?
If the computer in Safe Mode works, the problem is likely another program on your system. As a test, disable your protection programs.
I dont know what happened but the problem is gone now. Maybe safe mode fixed it somehow. Thanks.
As long as the problem is gone, Great!. Please flag your last post as Solved Problem as this can help others with similar problems.
