| 1 | I have lost my menu bar that ran across the top of the internet explorer 11 - I have always had the google tool bar underneath but the actual file, view etc is no longer there. Is it just me or is it everyone?? thanks elcie42 elcie42 - 2019-12-09 20:41:00 |

| 4 | Right click on one of the other bars that are still there. Should bring up a drop down menu - check that "Menu bar" is still ticked. itzmagic - 2019-12-09 20:45:00 |

I highly recommend upgrading. IE is not a secure browser. videomonkey - 2019-12-09 20:53:00 |

Heard this before BUT why are the alternatives so non-userfriendlyI'm not capable of making a technical decision and the others may well be more 'secure' but ease of use must surely count for something. keipa - 2020-11-25 18:21:00 |
| 13 | Chrome, Edge are not user unfriendly. nice_lady - 2020-11-25 18:43:00 |

Have to disagree, tried chrome after family member's suggestion - result clunky and VERY non user friendly Edited by keipa at 7:28 pm, Wed 25 Nov keipa - 2020-11-25 19:19:00 |

Do tell ? Detail might help. Personally I've been using it for years and years and find it very useable. nice_lady - 2020-11-25 19:29:00 |
| 17 | yeah i can't really see how it can be that different - all browsers have the same stuff, favourites/bookmarks/search/ad- king1 - 2020-11-25 19:34:00 |

| 19 | Firefox seems to develop memory leaks on my 40 window, 400+ tabs setup. It's the number one thing to bring W10 to a crawl. spyware - 2020-11-27 15:04:00 |

nice_lady been super busy now with non-covid activity now ok, but finally can respond to your comment 'detail might help'. So here we go with some very quick points that easily come to mind - btw in the meantime have now tried edge, chrome, and firefox Note that all fail due to no nicely set out menu listing neatly set out across the page view all in the same place and clearly legible. for edge - for chrome - for firefox - Edited by keipa at 3:47 pm, Tue 20 Apr keipa - 2021-04-20 15:45:00 |
| 21 | K. All of your issues are simple ignorance of how these things work home pages and search engines/pages are easily set. Favorites/bookmarks are simple to access once it's set up sub folders of those are of course available. My suggestion: if you are over 60 and have Senior Net nearby JOIN UP. You just need an hour of simple lessons and, trust me there's nothing difficult to learn for your needs. Edited by nice_lady at 4:11 pm, Tue 20 Apr nice_lady - 2021-04-20 15:57:00 |

| 23 | Chrome is pretty horrible, firefox is good apart from the updates when you are in the middle of doing something. If you are on Windows, K-Meleon might be worth looking at. tygertung - 2021-04-20 16:54:00 |
| 24 | Chrome is fine. If your experience of different perhaps it's Pebkac ? nice_lady - 2021-04-20 17:45:00 |
| 25 | No, I just didn't like the interface. tygertung - 2021-04-20 20:47:00 |
| 26 | Honestly I don't know what your guys problem is. I have chrome, firefox and edge on my computers and they all work fine, no problems at all, they do what they are suppose to do. I prefer firefox because it still allows youtube downloads unlike chrome and edge. muppet_slayer - 2021-04-20 21:35:00 |
