When I try to log-in on a website using google it tries to open a pop-up windows but it instantly gets closed. I have disabled all my adblockers and the pop-up blocking in the settings. When i try to do it the console says "Failed to open popup window on url: (the url) Maybe blocked by the browser?"

This is confusing here what website are you referring to here? Google can't login to website it's a search engine.

^: You can use a Google account to login to a website if they offer this (this forum allows this as well).

Does it work if you disable blocking pop-ups?

If you use extensions ("3-bar" menu button or Tools -> Add-ons -> Extensions) that can block content (Adblock,NoScript,DuckDuckGo PE,Disconnect,Ghostery,uBlock Origin,Malwarebytes), always make sure such extensions do not block content.

I have disabled "Block pop-up windows" and i have disabled all extensions on the website but still. The popup window instantly gets closed.
