since the last automatic update, v69.0, firefox has "timed out" on every page two and three times before loading which takes an abnormal time, 7 minutes for this screen, I have uninstalled and reinstalled the program and no change. I assume there may be a bug in the update?

Start Firefox in Safe Mode {web link}

A small dialog should appear. Click Start In Safe Mode (not Refresh). Is the problem still there?

Start your Computer in safe mode with network support. Then start Firefox. Try Secure websites. Is the problem still there?

again thank you. the problem does not affect firefox in safe mode but does in normal windows. The only thing I find is "Widevine Content Decryption Module provided by Google Inc. will be installed shortly." in the add-ons? This may be the problem?

As a test, disable your protection programs. Is the problem still there?
