Hi,

Since the most recent update, websites are loading as if they are experiencing 'blocking' for example when I go to a certain page nothing loads until the whole website is loaded in the background then it suddenly appears complete. So for a short while I have no idea the link or website I visited is working.

Any suggestions or ideas?

Thanks

Enhanced Tracking Protection and ad-blocking extensions can often cause this.

To disable Enhanced Tracking Protection on a specific website, 1. Go to the shield icon to the left of the address bar. 2. Toggle Enhanced Tracking Protection off.

Most ad-blockers have an option to turn them off for a specific website. If not, you can turn specific extensions off in about:addons.

If these do not work, try opening in Troubleshoot Mode.
