Keeps going back to previous page

When I'm on a site and I press something new, it usually, like normal, does what I want it to. However, sometimes when I press sometimes, it loads it for a second, than it goes back to the website that I was just previously on. I've tried quitting safari, restarting my MacBook Air, and others. It can happen twice at a row, or not happen for awhile and it's a new problem that has just recently occurred a few days ago that I thought was just a random little mistake that happens to everyone. What else should I do? I haven't had my Mac for even a year and it was a 1000 dollars so...

MacBook Air 13″, macOS 12.3

Hello tori223___,



It can help to try testing that out with multiple web browsers (Safari, Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, etc.) to see if it's isolated to just the one being used currently.



Be sure to also check for any extensions installed on the browser, as these may affect functionality. In Safari these will be found in the Safari menu > Preferences > Extensions.



If you're using Safari and the issue happens there, then this page has some further steps that may help out:

If Safari on Mac doesn't open a webpage or isn’t working as expected



Cheers.
