I’ve got this a few times on both my Windows and Linux machines. Uninstalling uBlock Origin, restarting Firefox, and reinstalling uBlock Origin had always fixed it for me.

reinstalling shouldn’t fix anything, it’s not buggy. that probably fixed it because technically you updated the filterlists. but there’s a button for that.

I didn’t know that, I’ll try that next time!

Sometimes it does not let you do it in the filterlists menu, because it thinks it was updated recently enough. I guess some users were needlessly spamming it or something. when that happens, you can still force update it, if you open uBO’s menu and click the message bubble button (expand if you don’t see it)
