I am fed up with firefox. I was using onshape.com for 3d cad modeling and one day I get a message that says, cannot continue with webgl disabled. So I find out I hadn't updated my drivers for a while. I updated my video card drivers. Then I find this, they are blacklisting all nvidia cards: https://wiki.mozilla.org/Blocklisting/Blocked_Graphics_Drivers#NVIDIA_cards and I have to enable webgl. I followed the instructions at the bottom and guess what? They didn't work. Now I am installing chrome, its my only option. Not only did my firefox upgrade break my webgl, I can't even find a workaround.

The content of that wiki page is likely quite outdated, so I wouldn't rely on it.

Did you check the Graphics section on the "Help > Troubleshooting Information" (about:support) page?
