Twitch video player not loading, cannot open Gmail and sometimes can't open Discord, says global environment variables not set.
Hi, I have three problems starting from the immediate:
1. Cannot open Gmail. Says browser may not be secure. 2. Video player in Twitch does not load. 3. Opening Discord in the browser sometimes doesn't work and
opens a dialog: 'Global environment variables not set'.
Problems 1 and 2 have been happening recently, somewhat after the last two updates of Firefox. Problem 3 has been going on before that, though intermittently. Kindly help me with this.

Follow up: I tried deleting all cookies and cache content and now all are working (except I don't know about Discord issue since it doesn't happen all the time). But I would be glad if someone would make me understand why these issues happened in the first place. I have been a long-time user of Firefox and would definitely like to use it in the future. I would like to make the product better so if there's anything from my side I could do, kindly tell.
Another followup: seems like it was also an issue of extension which I removed, which I now think was the main issue. Extension is: Windscribe VPN for firefox. Enabling it, twitch player doesn't load. Disabling it, it works. So, it was an extension issue. But I had also cleared cookies and cache as said earlier.

P.S - Problem is I had to delete all cookies and cache and now have to login into every site. So kindly look into this issue.
