  1. Trouble Installing KB5050009 (Install failure)

    I gave up trying to do it myself and opened the chat line. A guy took over my PC and cleared it up, so the update completed okay. I told him I was getting too old for this stuff.
  2. Trouble Installing KB5050009 (Install failure)

    I started the updates last night but gave up with KB50530009 until this morning when I chatted with MS about this update, and I asked how large the update was. He revealed that it was huge and slow due to so many downloads happening Tuesday and today. I was impatient and shutdown so restarted...
  3. Win Update KB5050009 Windows 11 Cumulative Update build 26100.2894 (24H2) - Jan. 14

    I contacted support via chat and my problem was solved. I'm getting too old for this stuff.
  4. Win Update KB5050009 Windows 11 Cumulative Update build 26100.2894 (24H2) - Jan. 14

    Not sure but MS update KB5050009 download just never seems to complete. Typical MS BS.
  5. Adobe Reader Delay

    Well, I installed several new and old versions of Adobe Acrobat but they all operate the same via Edge. Guess they don't care if we use Adobe or not. It works okay within Edge so I'll use it and/or Foxit when I want it simple. I cannot find the settings for Adobe so it just does its thing and...
  6. How did 24H2 install?

    I may be fooled or just not encountered any weirdness after 24H2 installed, but my laptop is working okay. While not paying attention 24H2 installed on two of my Win-11 Dell laptops and both seem to run okay. Have I witnessed a true miracle?
  7. Win Update KB5048667 Windows 11 Cumulative Update build 26100.2605 (24H2) - Dec. 10

    Yes, I do the same making a Macrium backup of my drive before the grand MS update adventure. However, I have found that the Win-11 dudes and dudettes are more learned that he Win-10 whizz kids, so things seem to work some better. Maybe it is wishful thinking on my part, but maybe there are two...
  8. Win Update KB5048667 Windows 11 Cumulative Update build 26100.2605 (24H2) - Dec. 10

    I tried to stop this update but no cigar, it got past me. So far Windows is working okay, even maybe faster. After reading the horror stories herein I was afraid to let it load. Am I to assume MS fixed their work?
  9. Edge/IE 11 problems

    I think my Edge was messed up a month ago when it began to act strange. It did not crash but changed at times and I just didn't notice what was going on. Then the last update it just went south. I uninstalled it, or repaired it, then installed a previous version that straightened it all out...
  10. Edge/IE 11 problems

    I keep Chrome around just in case I need another browser to find ways to fix Edge. Chrome is only slightly different than Edge but the small things bug me to use it. I like Norton's browser but never used it enough to get in the habit. Browsers are habit forming. Firefox works okay but it...
  11. Edge/IE 11 problems

    Thanks for the hints, gang, I think I just had a bad download and the older version fixed it. Will try the update tomorrow. Fresh air causes me to relax too much and I need to sleep on it.
  12. Edge/IE 11 problems

    Damned MS constating updating and most likely I had a glitch and then download had garbage in it. I will try to update it tomorrow when the Sun is up :) Now I have to reseat all my fonts and rubbish. Really tired of updates. This new Dell has a high resolution 16" screen and, of course, all the...
  13. Edge/IE 11 problems

    I found the previous Edge and installed it; the problem is gone and Edge operates fine with the older Edge. It may have been a bad download for that update.
  14. Edge/IE 11 problems

    I did that but no help, all my extensions were off and I reset everything, but no good. My lates Edge is: Version 131.0.2903.48 (Official build) (64-bit). I think this happened after that update. If I had saved the previous update I would install it, but I do not have it.
  15. Edge/IE 11 problems

    When using Edge I launch a link this is the error that appears:
