Firefox Blocking Webex Extension download and Zoom functions!!! The Extension does not activate the downloading and installing the app to join the meeting. I've been using Zoom/Webex for years on my PC work computer and my personal Mac. Today, 2/10/25 I tried to sign into a Massachusetts Unemployment training (which I've attended 5 years ago using Webex). But this Cisco Webex Extension is not downloading for me to install and join the meeting. It has worked in the past. So today's experience and last week's experience when Firefox prevented me from from screen-sharing on Zoom (which failed because the add-on extension did not activate) has made me realize I need to use Google-Chrome like most corporations and organizations do. Your IT team needs to do better user-testing, QA and provide user-friendly next steps for all of the Firefox blocking.
