Ever since the Windows Anniversary update my laptop has become extremely user UNfriendly.
I am forever having to tap the "recover webpage". I have already reset the IE11 to default settings and I have disabled all of my add-ons (I read somewhere that perhaps the add-ons were corrupt) and I still have not solved the problem. Any thoughts for a correction would be appreciated from any brilliant techie! If at all possible, please try to keep the solution fairly easy/simple since paralysis of fear kicks whenever I attempt to complete anything overly complicated. Since I am not tech-savvy, my initial response to a task is "OMG, I don't have a clue as to what I am being asked to do"!" Honestly, on the tech-savvy scale, I am a negative 1. Just lay it out as if you're talking to a newbie. :)message edited by geekiamnot
Are you receiving your Windows Updates? Left click the Windows icon at bottom left of screen, the then left click the settings cog icon (just a short way up). Select "Update & security" then "Updates history" (middle near the top). See how recent the updates dates are. Always pop back and let us know the outcome - thanks
Yes, "this device is up to date"; I see an update which loaded 5 days after the 13 of Oct.
This might be something that will sort itself out after another cumulative IE update, In the meantime you could try Firefox instead of Internet Explorer as it is very similar and usually works well.
