Soronel, I don't think the reset/refresh procedure is meant as a permanent fix. it is there for troubleshooting purposes.

I really don't understand what's going on. After restarting after the
mentioned refresh FF stopped working again, I had to redo the Help ->
Troubleshooting -> Restart -> Refresh cycle for FF to work again.

And unfortunately, in whatever mode this is FF won't actually tell me
what extensions/plugins are installed so it is very difficult to try
messing with them to figure out where the problem is.

Good to know.
So, maybe it isn't Firefox but something else on people's systems.

It sounds like others are having similar issues.

I did the 'refresh' offered as part of Firefox's troubleshooting mode and
now it works again. And yes, this is 89.0.

A possible fix is also mentioned.

I am experiencing exactly the issue you describe. I took the time to
examine the UIA tree with an accessibility test tool and while the
menu and toolbar buttons show up as normal there is simply no node
for the page content.

on occasion, I will use Firefox to browse a website, and recently it
was upgraded to version 89.0. now I find that after starting FF and
browsing to a website using JAWS 2020,I am not able to navigate any
website even though it's home page is open.

has anyone experience this, and any fixes for this problem? and
please don't tell me to use another browser.
