Why won’t my company’s website work on one Windows profile?

Asked By TechieTurtle42 On

I'm having trouble accessing my company's website on a specific Windows profile. I need to make some edits using WordPress, which works fine on my laptop and other profiles on this PC. However, when I try to access the site using Chrome, Firefox, or Edge on this profile, it only loads the homepage and none of the options are clickable. I've cleared the cache in all browsers, flushed the DNS, and run SFC and DISM, but nothing seems to work. Interestingly, I can access the site without any issues using the Tor browser on this profile. I'm curious as to why it works on Tor but not on the standard browsers. Is it possible that there's a Java or script issue common to the standard browsers? Any help would be appreciated!

It sounds like you might be dealing with network-level ad blocking using DNS. Your standard browsers are likely using the same DNS settings, which could be blocking some scripts or elements on the site, but Tor uses different routing and DNS, which can explain why it works there.

I see your point, but just to highlight, since you created a new local profile on the PC and standard browsers work perfectly there, it may indicate that something in your original profile is misconfigured. Have you checked the settings for your profile's network or security settings? Sometimes, specific browser settings or extensions can inadvertently create issues.
