Details
Steps to reproduce:
- Have an HTML document set, like the Java API doc set (https://www.oracle.com/java/technologies/javase-jdk8-doc-downloads.html) , that uses frames saved to the local file system. Therefore, all links are file:// URLs (or relative to a file:// base).
- Select a link in one frame where the @target attribute is to another frame.
Actual results:
The target of the link fails to load in the target frame.
Expected results:
The target of the link should load in target frame.
Local viewing for frame-based doc sets (like Java documentation) used to work in Firefox. Browsers like Google Chrome have no problems.
Problem persists even when running Firefox in Troubleshooting mode.

The Bugbug bot thinks this bug should belong to the 'Fenix::General' component, and is moving the bug to that component. Please correct in case you think the bot is wrong.
This bug is for Firefox for Windows desktop, NOT for Android. The bugbug bot is incorrect in reassigning to Fenix. The Bugziila interface does not allow me to change Product back to Firefox.
Figured out how to change Product field back to Firefox. The problem occurs with Firefox desktop on Windows. Likely a problem with other operating systems, but unable to verify at this time.

Yes, I think this is bug 1934807.
There is a fix incoming in 134.0.2 that will start rolling out tomorrow, or as a workaround you could switch to beta or nightly which already have this fix.
