Muggers- How many of you use Windows 10 and Microsoft Edge (Explorer) to surf the site?

To clarify, Edge is like Explorer, but it's what was included with Windows 10 computers, and it works slightly differently. I have a couple of reports of unintentional logouts, but one supposedly resolved itself when the browser released its last update and the other began with the last update. O_o 

If you are running Windows 10, likely with Edge, though perhaps with Explorer if you made a point of downloading it separately, and you are getting logged out at random intervals consistently (daily or several times a day), please let me know when you experience the issue, how long it has been going on for, and what versions of Windows 10 and Edge/ Explorer you are running, so I can try to troubleshoot more.

    When I first tried Windows X (yes, I'm taking a swipe at Apple) I just sat there and wondered how bad Windows 1 through 9 (or should that be I x IX) must have been. . . .

    Seriously, I've stuck with Windows 7 although my machine came with a license for both 7 Pro and 10 Pro. (I like my elderly printers and can't afford to replace my E size one). But I have a friend that uses Windows 10 in a professional environment and loves it.

    For Internet browsers I use almost all of them (Firefox, Explorer, Chrome, Safari), depending on what I'm doing. But I use Opera the most these days.

    I don't want W10 and Edge anywhere around my computers.

  • I like W10, but seldom use Edge. I downloaded Chrome, I like that one the best. I used to Fire Fox but it got all wonky and I uninstalled it.

    I tried using Firefox and my laptop got all screwy.  I have Windows 10 and apparently now have Edge and I'm having problems with automatic logouts.  I answer a question and as soon as I post it, I get logged out.  I use Internet Explorer at home and at work, but I don't have that problem at work.  I've already been logged involuntarily three times in three hours.  It all started happening after Microsoft did their last big update.

    Have you gone through all of the layers of settings in W10?  Do.  And in 60 days do it again.....................they will be changed back. This post was edited by Thriftymaid at August 6, 2017 5:19 PM MDT

    I have windows 10 but use google Chrome for everything.  I rarely turn my computer off and always leave my answerMug tab open.  That is why sometimes my funny hat appears when in all reality, I'm no where near.  It's magic!!  

    When I do sign off, for some reason, it takes a lot of manipulating to get back on.

    On my desktop I use (are you ready??????) Windows  Vista and Firefox. I know it is very outdated but it still works and does what I need it to do. My kids hate it because it is so slow. I laugh and tell them if they are bad I will make them use it. 
    On my mobile, I have Android Nougat and Samsung Internet.
