Allow popup? I wish to change my answer. How?
Allow popups from xyz.com? (I should have said 'yes', but I said 'no.') How do I change my answer?
Thanks,

Did you look at "Settings -> Privacy & Security -> Permissions" to remove this permission ?
All permissions in the native popup blocker have been disabled (allow all popups) in my attempt to get a particular website chat window to open. It is the commercial version of Microsoft Office, and one support option is a chat window that displays in a popup. Monday, 4-24-2023 I started getting these warnings: "We're unable to complete your request... "Microsoft account is experiencing technical problems. Please try again later." And "later" never came.
I was finally able to get a hold of them and they had me try Chrome and Edge, and neither generated the error message. Chrome and Edge are plain vanilla versions for me.
I was hoping I had missed something. I also had the uBlock Origin extension. I disabled that for the entire browser as well. I still had the issue.
I just tested it, and it's still broken. Thanks,

If you use extensions ("3-bar" menu button or Tools -> Add-ons -> Extensions) that can block content (Adblock Plus, NoScript, DuckDuckGo PE, Disconnect, Ghostery, Privacy Badger, uBlock Origin) always make sure such extensions do not block content.
- make sure your extensions and filters are updated to the latest version

Firefox shows a purple shield instead of a gray shield at the left end of the location/address bar in case Enhanced Tracking Protection is blocking content.

Start Firefox in Troubleshoot Mode to check if one of the extensions ("3-bar" menu button or Tools -> Add-ons -> Extensions) or if hardware acceleration or if userChrome.css/userContent.css is causing the problem.
