Firefox is just... Blank

I got the new Firefox not that long ago, on friday afternoon it was working fine and then friday evening/night it stopped working. I tried it in safe-mode and that didn't do anything either. When I get on Firefox, everything is just blank.

I've also tried disabling any add-ons or plugins. Both running safe-mode and in normal Firefox, and that didn't do anything either.

I've never had any problems with Firefox.

A possible cause is security software (firewall) that blocks or restricts Firefox or the plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.

Remove all rules for Firefox from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox and the plugin-container process and the updater process.

Well I'm not sure why, but clearing my cookies and cache got it working again. Which doesn't make any sense to me because I had already tried that haha. But it's working again, so thank you for your help!
