Well, I kinda made a move toward Chrome this

remember what. If I want to keep reading my
Bookshare books, guess that's what I'm gonna
have to do. I have tried the new Chromium Edge,
and so far I am amazed as to how well it still
seems to work with WE. The major problem being
is the DAISY issue. As for Net Bat's suggestion
to try opening a new account and see if things
don't clear up, I have never done that before,
so hope that process doesn't prove to be tricky.
I have had enough computer drama to last me for
at least a year over the past week. If anyone
can come up with anything else, or encourage
changing accounts, guess that would be fine,
just as long as it works <smile>. On 2/18/2020
