Random code appearing on pages
Hi
The last couple of days I have been experiencing blocks of code appearing when I go to Advanced Reply. I haven't changed anything on my laptop although it might have done an overnight update without me realising! I view OB through Edge browser. (Windows 10 with all updates installed.) Not happening on any other sites I post on so think it is OB specific.
I've grabbed screenshot which probably better explains what is happening:

Since I dumped Windoze and installed Linux on this laptop I have had zero issues with this or any other site I use.

I'm switching my Windows 8.1 desktop soon to Linux.

I usually use Firefox on my Windows 10 PC with no issues, so I tried using Edge, but I can't reproduce what you are seeing. Advanced reply works normally.
I too am thinking of moving to Linux, but would still keep windows as a dual boot option. A lot of Steam games don't work under linux, and neither does Adobe Lightroom. I use both of these a lot, so swtiching 100% to linux isn't possible...

Once you get Linux installed, install WINE. You can run Windows based programs through it. |

Lightroom Classic is finicky and probe to crashes in Wine. As to steam, not all "windows only" games will run well (or run at all) in it. My boyfriend has been using dual boot for years and it's the best solution to have optimal performance of all apps.

I don't use many Windoze based programs. I have an aversion to anything touched by Bill Gates.

Fuerte ----- I've been using firefox on windows 10 and windows 8.1, and haven't encountered that situation yet. Been using all year. Could temporarily try chrome and firefox - and if it works fine for chrome and firefox, then at least it can narrow things down to maybe browser, or browser software/settings.
