XF 2.0 - "Response Was Not JSON" errors randomly appearing on site....?

Has anyone else experienced this? I have suddenly noticed random "Response was not JSON" errors quickly popping up and disappearing on the site when selecting various navigation options. This is new, but I have also noticed that I am unable to use "quick thread" (although it seems to sometimes...

This sort of error is usually indicative of something outside of XenForo manipulating the result content. Browser extensions are certainly one potential cause.

Try disabling browser extensions one by one mate.

I use Chrome on PC, never had this.

Weird. seems to happen as soon as i add Grandolteam as a trusted site on the ublock origin extension for Chrome. I disable that and it doesn't appear.

Very odd, if you work it out mate let us know?

ublock origin seems to cause a few conflicts like.

I've been stung by the same fella today. Weird though as I've had successful dealings with him previously.

How are you browsing mate? device/browser? Not using the app are you? Also what permissions are you referring to?

Thanks.

Its so I can try an replicate it/get the error to help diagnose the issue/inspect element.

Will browse using Edge, just download that extension too and have it as disabled to replicate.

Definitely nothing else that could be interfering with your browser, no?

Checked Windows update and found there is a preview update today...
Cumulative Update Preview for Windows 11 Version 22H2 for x64-based Systems (KB5025305)

Downloaded and installed it, restarted and the problem seems to be fixed even with the Malwarebytes extension enabled.
I'll keep you updated should things change. Thanks for your concern.

Still happening here, I just did the same update @Dooguk did and it didn't resolve the issue. Like I said, I switched SSD's as my main drive so Im not sure if that has anything to do with it.

I failed to mention I also cleared my browser history before the restart. Don't know if it made any difference, but it might be worth a try.
