i cannot edit a post using win10 and edge. Marilynne edits in another browser as a work around. Anyone have a fix using win10? Thanks.

Use a real browser. Chrome, Firefox, Opera, whatever.

There are plenty of good browsers available that run under Windows 10. There is no good reason why anyone should use Edge, other than to download one of these other browsers.

Use Chrome. It works best[/QUOTEI AM GIVING CHROME A TRY "BUT" UPLOADER IS ONLY BASIC, HOW TO CHANGE TO STANDARD?

Nikonpup, Nick posted this in another thread. It's worked for many of us. It comes from a different thread of yours: https://nikonites.com/feedback-and-...loader-again.html?highlight=chrome#post650145

I've only seen the basic uploader for quite awhile now. I haven't had time to look into why. I just tried something and it worked. On Chrome, click on the lock icon at the left end of the address bar. Look for flash in the list that comes up. Set it to 'allow'. Mine was set to 'ask', but it never asked. Looks like its working now. On Firefox there was a plugins icon next to the lock on the address bar and I had to click and enable Flash. The icon went away after I enabled it, so I guess it was just a message. Firefox is now working too.

I use Chrome all the time, but it has its quirks. For example, when someone uses the @ sign in front of a member's name and I quote them, I cannot get to the Advanced reply box. Instead I always get an error. Even now when quoting Nikonpup's colored font, I received an error message. So I simply stayed in the Post Quick Reply option. This doesn't happen with Firefox.

Just tried this suggestion to turn on the flash uploaded and it works. Thanks for the suggestion. And yes those are both photos of me. The one with the long hair is me 40 years ago when I was working at The University of Alabama

I haven't had that issue myself, Nikonpup, and I backspace a lot while writing my responses. Sorry--maybe someone else can help you.

And just a shout out to @nickt since his previous reply is still helping people. :)
