In the last couple days, I've been having trouble with Firefox Quantum.

For some reason, it refuses to work with google. At all.

I can do a google search, but when I click a link from the results, nothing happens. I have to right click and "Open link in a new tab" to be able to visit a website from a google search.

It also won't log into my gmail. It goes to the gmail site, and just has the "loading me@gmail.com" bar that goes nowhere. If I use the "load standard HTML" link at the bottom, then I can load it.

As for the addons that I have, I have NoScript, Adblock Plus, UBlock and Google Translator. Thinking one of these might be the source of the issue, I disabled the adblocks and allowed all scripts on a google search results page, and I was still unable to follow a link using a left-click.

Any suggestions?

Did you stop NS, adblock, ublock to see if gmail works?

As was already in my post, I disabled both adblockers and allowed all scripts, with no effect.

Did you try refreshing the page bypassing the cache, using Ctrl + F5?

Also note that using several extension that have the same purpose may not work as expected. Adblock Plus and uBlock are kind of similar, so try uninstalling one.

If that doesn’t help, uninstall all of them and reinstall one by one. Both are (as others) quite "new" for WebExtensions, and one of them has had some issues lately, I think it was uBlock.
