When I try to access a certain website I get the following message "The (name of company) website is currently unavailable due to system maintenance." I confirmed with the company that their website is working. I cleared the Firefox cache and history. I did a Firefox refresh. I tried accessing website with another browser and it worked fine. I tried restarting my computer. Still Firefox not working for that one website. What is the solution to fix this issue?

Hi

What is the address of this website?

You can remove all data stored in Firefox for a specific domain via "Forget About This Site" in the right-click context menu of an history entry ("History -> Show All History" or "View -> Sidebar -> History").

using "Forget About This Site" will remove all data stored in Firefox for this domain like history and cookies and passwords and exceptions and cache, so be cautious. If you have a password or other data for that domain that you do not want to lose then make sure to backup this data or make a note.

You can't recover from this 'forget' unless you have a backup of involved files.

If you revisit a 'forgotten' website then data for that website will be saved once again.


If you use a bookmark to access a specific page then instead navigate to this page starting with the main page or with the sign in page in case there is a problem with this bookmark.
