Unresponsive script error on Netflix: codex.nflxext.com/%5E2…bootstrap.js,akira%7Ccommon.js:13
Whenever I sign into Netflix, as soon as the home page comes up, Firefox slows and I get an unresponsive script error with this link: https://codex.nflxext.com/%5E2…bootstrap.js,akira%7Ccommon.js:13.
If I stop the script, I can't watch any movies. Other websites stream fine, and Netflix works on my andriod, so I know it's not a problem with them. I'm using Windows 10, just updated to the latest version of Firefox, and have cleared all cookies and caches. There are no other codes. Using Safe Mode doesn't help.
I've searched around for hours and can't find any fixes. Thanks for anyone's help!

Then restart. Poke around safe websites. Are there any problems?
I'd tried that already - it still didn't work. Even in safe mode, I turned of Hardware Acceleration, restarted in safe mode and then just normally. Nothing worked.
I called for more help.
Remove History For One Site
Open the History Manager <Control><Shift> H. In the search bar, enter the name of the site. Right-click on one of the listings and select Forget About This Site. This should remove all information, including any passwords / settings.
I have Firefox set to delete my history upon exiting. I tried that just now, but nothing came up when I typed Netflix into the search bar.
