I am unable to log into any Microsoft 365 programs, (Microsoft 365, Microsoft Outlook, Microsoft OneDrive) on the Firefox browser since installing Windows 11
I am unable to sign into Microsoft 365 services in Firefox. When I try to sign in on the Microsoft 365 Website, it doesn't sign in, it simply redirects me back to the website. When I try to sign in from the Outlook login page, I get an error page saying "500 Something went wrong. Repeating redirects detected." Screenshot attached.
1. I was able to sign in with another browser. 2. I was able to sign in on a device running Windows 10. 3. I have cleared the entire cache and history on the Firefox browser - it didn't work. 4. I tried logging in with Firefox in Troubleshooting Mode - it didn't work.
I saw an archived thread from 10/28/2021 where @OthelloBloke had the same issue ("Microsoft 365 Signin on Office.com Doesn't Work After Windows 11 Update"). It didn't seem to have been resolved. It has been a while since Windows 11 came out. Has there been any resolution to this issue? Please help me fix it. Most of my activities are on Microsoft 365, and I prefer to use Firefox as my browser. But if this is ongoing I will need to abandon this browser in order to access my work.

A full browser screenshot would be more helpful. I have no issue logging into my Hotmail account. see screenshot
Here's a screenshot of the entire screen.
Try this, but make sure you know the login info because it's going to remove everything about the site. https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/remove-websites-address-bar-suggestions Are you at home? Are you on VPN? Did you ever try clicking the link in this screenshot?
Yes, I already tried clearing the entire browser history. Clearing my browser history did not make any difference to the issue with signing in to Microsoft. Yes, I clicked the link to sign out. It signed me out. It did not make any difference to my inability to access my Microsoft account when trying to sign in. I am using the computer from home. I am not using a VPN.

What security software are you running? Are you running the Pro version of Windows? If so, can you try Windows Sandbox (VM) option to see if it works? https://www.howtogeek.com/399290/how-to-use-windows-10s-new-sandbox-to-safely-test-apps/
You can also try this option, but make sure you know the login info because this option will remove it. https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/remove-websites-address-bar-suggestions
