It is possible that your firewall or other security software blocks or restricts Firefox or the plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.

Remove all rules for Firefox and the plugin-container from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full, unrestricted, access to install for Firefox and the plugin-container process and the updater process.

Hi datum, that depends on your security software, and whether it has "program control" meaning it allows/blocks individual programs from accessing the internet.

Some Windows 10 upgraders have also needed to reset the Windows TCP components. See: After upgrade to window 10, cannot access internet from firefox or chrome.
