E-mails (live.com) stay in "Load" mode and will not open - Please help
Hi,
I noticed that after most Microsoft updates (which are too many and very annoying), I cannot open my "live.com" e-mails within FireFox. The e-mails remain stuck on "Load" and just will not open. This has happened before and there was no solution apparently. The last time it happened, the system reset itself (not sure when, or how) but it took several months for this to happen.
Is this a common issue and is there an 'easy' solution? My version of FireFox is up to date and I have not tweaked any of the privacy or security options. Interestingly, I noticed that I can open my e-mails using Microsoft Edge, but not using FireFox.
Thank you in advance! I am sure this will happen again and I'd like to find out if there is a solution that I can resort to next time this happens (assuming of course that the issue is related to the same cause).

As shown in the pic, i can log in to Outlook via FF. And it worked pretty fast too.
So what I think may be occurring is that some kind of security application is causing the issue.
Do you have/run none microsoft anti-virus and anti-malwares? Do you also have add ons installed in the FF browser?
The first step i would try is to launch FF in a clean mode and also Windows in a clean mode, then see if the problem is resolved. If it does, then the cause of the issue was something that is none FF and none Windows was running
If you use extensions ("3-bar" menu button or Tools -> Add-ons -> Extensions) that can block content (Adblock Plus, NoScript, DuckDuckGo PE, Disconnect, Ghostery, Privacy Badger, uBlock Origin) always make sure such extensions do not block content.
- make sure your extensions and filters are updated to the latest version
