Not too worried about that. I am still using v54. So far no real issues.

- How to clear the Firefox cache {web link}
If there is still a problem, Start Firefox in Safe Mode {web link} by holding down the <Shift> (Mac=Options) key, and then starting Firefox.
A small dialog should appear. Click Start In Safe Mode (not Refresh). Did this help?
While you are in safe mode;
Try disabling graphics hardware acceleration in Firefox. Since this feature was added to Firefox it has gradually improved but there are still a few glitches.
How to disable Hardware Acceleration {web link}
Yes i have cleared the cache and cookies. It works if i restart with add ons disabled. It is asking to accept cookies i think but redirects before i can when the add ons are enabled
hardware accelleration is disabled.
It works OK on MS edge
On a different computer with the same OS,set up and add ons i can get a chance to accept the cookies

It could be the work of one of your add-ons
Type about:addons<enter> in the address bar to open your Add-ons Manager. Hot key; <Control> (Mac=<Command>) <Shift> A)
In the Add-ons Manager, on the left, select Extensions. Disable a few add-ons, then Restart Firefox.
Some added toolbar and anti-virus add-ons are known to cause Firefox issues. Disable All Of them.
If the problem continues, disable some more (restarting FF). Continue until the problem is gone. After, you know what group is causing the issue. Re-enable the last group ONE AT A TIME (restarting FF) until the problem returns.
Once you think you found the problem, disable that and re-enable all the others, then restart again. Let us know who the suspect is, detective.

I marked it solved now, didn't know about that. For others with this problem what I did was disable I Don'tCare About Cookies on consent.youtube.com .
i will be reenabling when I Don'tCare About Cookies is updated
Thanks for the help. Much appreciated
