Hmm, i cant reproduce on nightly. @ryanbr can you reproduce on 1.32?

ryanbr commented 3 years ago

Can still reproduce in Nightly Version 1.32.58 (Windows) in a new profile. Just tested mac, actually it worked on an older Nightly build then failed when I upgraded too 1.32.58 @pes10k

Bizarre! Im on 1.32.58 on Mac and can't reproduce, either in my main profile or an empty one… I wonder if @antonok-edm or @ShivanKaul or others could see if they can reproduce?

ryanbr commented 3 years ago

Went through a few Nightly builds, seeing if there were any regressions (windows). Nothing so far, all failed on the 2nd step.

Nightly v1.32.39  (FAILED)
Nightly v1.32.33  (FAILED)
Nightly v1.32.25  (FAILED)

Also disabled the VPN, and then changed the location of VPN too US. In case it's a geolocation issue (made no difference so far)
