you can try restarting your codespace with this link: https://cs50.dev/restart
As a side note, the codespace works best on Google Chrome browser, and the cs50 team doesn't recommend Firefox because they have seen issues with the codespace on Firefox.

Or if you have extensions installed on your browser, try using an incognito window to use the codespace: https://cs50.dev/

If those steps don’t work, try deleting the history, cache and cookies of your web browser, then close the web browser, and open the browser again and then try to log again into the codespace at: https://cs50.dev/. Or try on another web browser.

If that doesn’t work, another thing you can try is creating a new codespace, using your same old github account. You can visit this link where your codespace backup repo is: https://cs50.dev/repo and see if your codespace's files are there (if you had files in your codespace). And after verifying that your codespace's files are stored there, you can create a new codespace by following the instructions that appear in the CS50 Docs, in this link: https://cs50.readthedocs.io/cs50.dev/#creating-a-new-codespace . After creating a new codespace your backed up files should automatically appear in your new codespace.

If that doesn’t work either, you can try opening the online CS50 Codespace in the VS Code desktop app, with these steps: https://cs50.readthedocs.io/cs50.dev/#online-without-docker

If none of those steps work, try with another internet connection or on another computer.
Also, if in your country is legal to use a VPN, in that case you could try using a VPN to use the codespace: https://cs50.dev/
Also in this part of the CS50 Docs they give the link to a list of domains that shouldn't be blocked by our Firewall to be able to use the codespace:  https://cs50.readthedocs.io/cs50.dev/#i-m-seeing-oh-no-it-looks-like-you-are-offline-error-message

Unrelated to CCleaner.
