When I open firefox, instead of the mozilla homepage i just see a blank page. Same if I try to search something than theres also just a blank page. It seems like mozilla isnt getting any internet eventhough i have internet.

Start Firefox in Safe Mode {web link} A small dialog should appear. Click Start In Safe Mode (not Refresh). Is the problem still there?

Some problems occur when your Internet security program was set to trust the previous version of Firefox, but no longer recognizes your updated version as trusted. Now how to fix the problem: To allow Firefox to connect to the Internet again;

  • Make sure your Internet security software is up-to-date (i.e. you are running the latest version).
  • Remove Firefox from your program's list of trusted or recognized programs. For detailed instructions, see

Configure firewalls so that Firefox can access the Internet. {web link}

I forgot to mark it as solved. I found out that a system file was missing and now its working. But thank you anyways

This sounds like an issue with a missing VCRUNTIME140_1.dll
