    I checked for updates manually and there were a couple for Defender so I downloaded and was prompted to restart. This I did but the menu said it could not install due to an update still running and had a 'retry' button. I used this and the machine shutdown and restarted but will not load...

    YouTube does not play in Edge

    I am currently experiencing a problem where YouTube does not play in Edge. I had a problem with IPlayer but enabling Flash Player solved this so it would appear that it is not Flash Player that is causing the problem. Any help would be gratefully received.

    Why does Edge not load properly

    Hello Frank Thanks for the response. No that is not the error. I paid for MS Premier Assist and they tested this out and eliminated it. The technician admitted the KB4020102 was the culprit. I must admit the whole experience has put a dent in my confidence in MS products. John
