My pop ups wont load at all. I tried resetting, default settings, disabling add ons one by one to check it but none found. It works though with all add ons disabled but which add on to disable exactly i don't know . Help!

If it works in Firefox Safe-mode then disable all extensions (Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one extension at a time until the problem reappears.

Close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")

Hi purpsivy,

You might want to have a look at your Pop Up Blocker settings, the problem might come from there. Here are some instructions on how to do it. Also if this comes from your add-ons check any add-on related to ad blocking or pop up blocking.

Hope that helps!

Which pop-ups do not come up?

Does this happen with all pop-up or only on specific pages?

Can you give a link to a public page as an example?

You can inspect and manage permissions for all domains on the about:permissions page via the location bar.


Note that there is also security software that can block pop-ups.
