	Bob eversince Microsoft Edge installed itself on my computer, it keeps crashing all the time.It shifted my favourites to the centre of screen. I tried to uninstall it but as I was told, they own the licence to Windows so you cant get rid of it. Permanently now i get not responding!! So irritating. I do have Mozilla but i only use that for one site . I so wish the computer would just stay as it is. The saying "if it isnt broke, then don't try and fix it" springs to mind! Florence in the hebrides :-P

	OH had this problem a few days ago. As everything was OK on our main computer he started investigating the settings on his laptop and found that his server was no longer google, but had changed to proxy server!! :-S After a few words of choice language he changed it back - and all was well!! :-)
