Since Wednesday, after updating Windows, for some unknown reason, I cannot connect to X, formerly known as Twitter on PC. I mainly use Brave browser, but I tried using Chrome, MS Edge, and even Tor but for some reason none of those want to connect to X. I've cleared my Cache, browser history, cookies, registry, did malware scans, went into the router to ensure I wasn't randomly blocked somehow, turned off all extensions, even checked it out using incognito/private browser but none of those worked. The only browser I could connect to it with was Firefox, and that's not my choice of browser.
 
Have you reset your X login information recently?
I don't think it has anything to do with the account itself since I simply can't get X to load on those browsers at all. I simply get sent to the "Aww Snap something went wrong" screen.

and the exact error is?

It doesn't give me an error code, just tells me to restart the browser, restart my computer, or try it in a private browser. I'll double check when I'm able to later today, but Im sure it's not something with my wifi, since I'm connected to the wifi while I'm on my phone and I can still access the website there.
 
I was more referring to changing saved login info from the browser itself (possibly being different than on X).

Are you using a VPN (not browser provided/built-in)?

No, I'm not currently using a VPN.
I tried sharing an imgur link of what I'm seeing but it was flagged as spam.
 
So multiple browsers will not work, yet Firefox does? Just confirming.

Is your system time, including time zone, properly set?

What apps did you use to scan for malware?

Aside from FF, are you able to successfully connect via another device on the same network?
 
The system date/time is correct, as well as the region.

I used Malwarebytes, Adwcleaner, and Windows Defender to scan.

I'm able to connect using my cell phone
