According to users, Netflix is not working on Firefox, and this is a problem since they can\u2019t watch their favorite content anymore. This can be a major problem, but it can be easily fixed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Outdated plugins or certain browser settings can cause this issue to occur.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

  3. Click the Cog<\/em> icon and choose Check for Updates<\/strong>.
