Trying to download files, but every time the file download location/folder opens up for me to start the download, Firefox freezes up and never shows the files in the folder, can't start the download, end up having to end task on Firefox.

Firefox 91.02 64 bit

Alienware 15 R4 Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-8300H CPU @ 2.30GHz 2.30 GHz Windows 10 Home Version 20H10 OS Build 19042.1165 64bit Windows Feature Experience Pack 120.2212.3530.0

Started working again after running CCleaner. Clearing all of Firefox's history, running Windows Disk Cleanup, even rebooting, was not enough to fix it.
