It seems that you're using an outdated browser. Some things may not work as they should (or don't work at all).
We suggest you upgrade newer and better browser like: Chrome, Firefox, Internet Explorer or Opera

I'm currently on my Win 10 laptop, as I'm away from my desktop PC for a few months, and I'm having this problem where I can't wishlist games, or post reviews, because GoG is asking me to log in, even know I am already logged in, and that process just loops infinitely.

I tried disabling all addons, making sure Firefox is allowed through firewall, making sure GoG is on the exception list in Firefox, tried logging in on Edge, logging out of all login instances via Orders and settings - Login and security on GoG, nothing works, same BS. Even tried clearing EVERYTHING in Firefox, login, cookies, cache, etc. Same nonsense. Love having to relogin to all 50 of my accounts when I do this.

Don't know how to add a website exception to firewall, cause Google search is utterly useless 50% of the time.

I really want to post my review for ATOM RPG Trudograd, but GoG is giving me it's glitchy incompetence as usual.

• Try a different browser with no add-ons and default settings, or GOG Galaxy.
• In Firefox, enter about:profiles into the address bar. Create a new profile, set your old profile as default, then launch the new profile in a new browser window and test things there. If you're using Linux, double-check your add-ons manager to make sure add-ons from your old profile aren't loaded.

For future reference, you don't need to clear all cookies. If you want to troubleshoot in your normal profile, it's simplest to open a new container tab. It has its own set of cookies. You can alternatively go to about:preferences#privacy and click the Manage Data button to clear cookies per-site.

You almost certainly don't need to create per-site exceptions in your firewall, if that's even possible with your software. You typically create exceptions per-application and protocol, e.g. you allow a browser to access all websites.

I already tried with addons completely disabled, and logging in with super ultra vanilla, completely unmodified Microsoft Edge, I even have all my firewalls disabled, (and Firefox.exe is allowed through firewall anyway), no go.

So... I tried that new profile thing, aaaaand it nuked all my bookmarks and addons with no way of instantly recovering them, thanks. Holy shit I've wasted so much time on this crap, it's not even funny.

And I'm not installing Galaxy to POST A F***ING REVIEW. GOG FIX YOUR SHIT, CHRIST.

You know, for a DRM free platform, you guys incorporate a lot of stealth tactics that cripple and buggify your GoG experience... or maybe it's just incompetence, it's really hard to tell. If more than one PC is logged into your account, it goes f***ing apeshit, happened to me in the past a few years ago. Couldn't log out on one PC. Literally had to kill all logins, cache, cookies, etc JUST TO LOG OUT ON ONE PC.

Again, I'm currently on my laptop, I'm away from my desktop PC for a few months, and I'm pretty sure I forgot to logout on that PC, despite hitting the "kill all logins" button in GoG security/login settings via laptop.

I can almost guarantee you this is probably related to my desktop PC still being logged in, like I said, GoG goes apeshit if more than one thing is logged in at a time.

Creating a new Firefox profile doesn't touch your old profile. Most likely you didn't set your old profile as default, as instructed. Closing and restarting Firefox in that case loads up the brand new profile you created earlier. It should be a simple matter of going to about:profiles and setting your old profile as default. After you start in the old profile, you can also delete the new profile you don't need from about:profiles (don't get the two mixed up).

If you have GOG Galaxy installed, then it's a better way to troubleshoot then using another browser. That's all.

If you haven't already, open a support ticket.
Alright, so I finally tried posting my review via GoG Galaxy aaaaaaand same shit happens.

Like, seriously?

Why is GoG so horrendously glitchy?

Can anyone tell me whats causing this problem?

I have no mouth and I must report bugs.

Sounds more like a you issue. Try another browser. Yours seems screwed up. Or maybe something about your account has been flagged.
Anyway reporting bugs via review isn't going to accomplish anything. Better to post in a forum for the game, actually probably better to post in the Steam forum for the game.

I think you misread the last part of my first post.

I simply want to post a review for ATOM RPG Trudograd on it's GoG page, it's a great Fallout inspired turn based RPG. Why would I mention GoG's incompetence in the review? Unless it has something to do with the game itself (it doesn't in this case)

GoG's glitchyness, or whatever is going on is keeping me from posting reviews or wishlisting games because of the "You must login, even know you're already logged in" anomaly.

Except no one seems to have this problem but you so isn't it far more likely your issue than GOG's?

Some users currently have problems running certain scripts on GOG, the wishlist was mentioned before as being problematic.
In some cases it was because of a firewall, in others because IPv6 still does not seem to run properly for some parts of the world (where I had no problem whatsoever).

Try disabling IPv6 for Galaxy, also try to disable your firewall for testing or create an exception for GOG.
