@bsheart24 @AbnerZheng Would you be able to share the error logs you are seeing?

  1. Go to about:addons
  2. Click the gear icon
  3. Select "Debug add-ons"
  4. Click "Inspect" next to MetaMask
  5. In the new window, make sure the "Console" tab is selected
  6. Right click and then select "Save all messages to file"

And then send us that file

Here is a video of how to do that https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/459af6f5-dcfb-4864-bd23-d8d3088ec25e

Also, you may find that fully closing all browser windows, and then re-opening will resolve the issue (at least temporarily). Please let us know if that is true for you or not.

sorry, I'm away from keyboard now and can't provide the error message to you, but neither fully closeting Firefox nor restarting computer resolve the issue. I solve the issue by disabling the plugin and then enabling it as told above.
