VPN problems

Hi.

I am on my Chrome browser here, not Mozilla.

For some unknown reason, when I re-started my Mozilla, all of a sudden, out of the blue, after having used my Nord VPN for weeks, I get this weird error Mozilla message:

"Authentification required

The proxy moz-proxy://no.XXX.nordvpn.com:XX" (I use X instead of numbers here, for security reasons)

I have restarted my PC, to see if it was just a glitch, still Mozilla blocks me with the same message. I was on my Mozilla just 1 hour ago, but restarted it, to clean cache. And no, I don't use Mozilla VPN.

Please reply by email mortenjauthor@gmail.com, as I'm on Chrome and can't get into Mozilla, for obvious reasons.

Help.

Sincerely Morten J.

Mozilla also has its own VPN.

I dont use VPN so I unfortunately i am unable to provide guidance regarding the negative effects you are experiencing.

But why not re-ask you question at Mozilla VPN ?

Here is the link:

UPDATE:

I got one reply (thanks!), and was told to ask in the Mozilla VPN forum, but i haven't Mozilla VPN, so I can't access is.

Still hoping for some help :)

Yes, i referred you to that site only because they are experts in VPN. and who knows? maybe FF's vpn feature is conflicting with your other vpn.

but this is why i thought asking the vpn brainiacs could explain what you are experiencing and how to over come it.

so are you not able to post your question at that forum as shown in pic attached ?

Sorry to bother you again, but I don't see any pic attached. No attachments in your mail, just the link to the VPN forum.

Well, that only answers the question for Mozilla VPN. But I don't have Mozilla VPN, I have Nord. I'll try to empty my cache, turn off my VPN and restart PC without it. Again: Thanks for trying to help me <3 :)
