hi, please give us more information about the error by clicking on the error code, copying the text to the clipboard and then pasting it here into a reply in the forum like shown on the screenshot.
thank you!
I'll try. I tried to do this when I reported the issue but as it identifies Mozilla as "insecure" I got blocked when I tried to get the additional information when I used the feedback link to report the problem. I had to use another browser to report the fault
Tried again but same problem - Catch 22. Now using v57.0.4 which works fine. Also latest beta v58.0b16 has same issue
could you copy the information as shown in firefox and paste it here into a forum reply with a different browser that works then?
