Just got this, and very pleased I am with it, or will be when I sort the 'bits' out.

Mindslip No: 67, or is it 68:

1. When setting up I inadvertently coloured the pages black but cant get them back to standard?
2. I have set browser Chrome on default but stuff keeps opening on Edge which I hate?

Once again Glaskuter you have come to my rescue. Sorry to be a pain, but my memory is disfunctional, or something. I am in your debt yet again. I dont know how I missed the colour change page but Chrome defaults was a bit of a puzzle at first.
