Problem taking a full page screenshot of YouTube

Question

0.99.1/Win10 Pro 20H2/Vivaldi 3.8.2259.42 (Stable channel) (64-bit)

I mostly use Fireshot for saving recipes posted beneath cooking videos. For some reason, maybe two or three months ago, I began getting a message saying that Fireshot isn't able to work on some pages, typically due to browser security settings. This would happen on some YouTube pages. However, now it seems to happen all the time, for every YouTube page I try to capture. I don't get the usual menu. Instead, it says "Welcome to Fireshot!" followed by a few paragraphs explaining how Fireshot can't execute under certain circumstances.

Not a clue why this is happening. I'm not aware of any settings in my browser that would cause this, much less a periodic, site-specific block. Very frustrating.

Edit: For clarification, this doesn't happen anywhere else. Only on YouTube.

Accepted Answer

Sadly, I couldn't re-create the problem. I suggest you disabling the rest extensions in order to check if that could be the case.
