Firefox Update Bars Hotmail

I just installed an update when prompted by Firefox. Now I can't log into Hotmail.

FF 129.0.2 x64. The update restarted FF. Everything else seems to work OK. But when I go to Hotmail.com, at first it displays my Hotmail inbox - which is odd; all other webpages requiring a login were logged out when I installed the update, requiring me to log in again - but then it switches to an error:

Something went wrong and we can't sign you in right now. Please try again later.

The Microsoft account login server has detected too many repeated authentication attempts. Please wait a moment and try again.

The same Hotmail account is still logged in and functioning on Chrome. This is why I think it's a FF-specific problem.

Sad to say, simply restarting Firefox solved it. Sorry for the bother. I guess I'm out of practice troubleshooting. But thanks for the list of potential solutions. I've saved that.

Note: I got a copy of jonzn4SUSE's last reply via email. That email contained a no-reply link to this thread. That link didn't work. To re-find this thread, I had to search for my own post. Google didn't have it yet, but at least it showed other posts from this forum. So then I was able to search my own profile for my posted questions.

Moral of the story: if this forum wants people to be able to mark such problems as solved, it might want to include working links in the reminder emails.
