Mozilla VPN will not connect no matter what troubleshooting steps i take to fix it

i have a laptop running windows 10 and i use firefox as my main browser. no matter what i enable, disable or allow through my firewalls mozilla vpn refuses to connect, sits there spinning for minutes on end until finally ending up with “connection blocked, check your firewall”. i have uninstalled it, reinstalled, hard reset my computer several times, completely turned off my firewall, absolutely nothing. i have no idea what is wrong. it works completely fine on my apple phone, but absolutely nothing on my computer. i am at my wit’s end. someone please help!

I’m experiencing the same issue

same issue really sucks
