I have had Firefox for three days now, and I was trying to watch some videos on Netflix, but I got this error that the DRM was not installed. I did not have any plugins installed or VPN on either. I was looking for steps to solve this but came to a dead end. I tried looking into the console, and it gave me errors with turning off/on the DRM. I would like to get some help with this.

Did you check on this for DRM as well if enabled or disabled feature? https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/enable-drm

I checked on the website and followed everything and it didn't work

The Widevine plugin is downloaded from redirector.gvt1 .com (without the space) which is sometimes blocked by services like NextDNS. Disable any VPN, proxy, DNS, firewall or filter that may be blocking it on your system or network.
