For a week or better I have been unable to download anything through my Firefox browser, I have refreshed and uninstalled Firefox (I had to reinstall through another browser) in an attempt to fix this issue to no avail. I cannot download from verified sites, nor am I able to download Firefox's own extensions or themes (when I attempt I get an error telling me to check my connection, screenshot included).

I would like to be able to use Firefox normally again, with the ability to download files and install my extensions restored.

Since I see the UBlock Origin logo there; can you try temporarily disabling it? Was this mobile/android, or windows/mac/linux? Thanks!

Hello, thank you for the reply!

The screenshot is from Firefox's extension download page, that's why there is the uBlock Origin logo, as I was providing a screenshot of the error I get when I try to download an extension (in this case: uBlock Origin). This is the same error that occurs with downloading themes. Because of refreshing Firefox, I do not have any extensions.

All other download attempts are simply displayed as "Failed" in the in-browser downloads drop-down.

Bit of an oversight on my part not mentioning that my issue is with Firefox for Windows!
