    Hi bidd,

    It seems I'm not alone - http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/...0/d4b8dc64-bdae-4b9f-b1bf-409df5b9b9d4?auth=1

    Like the OP in that thread, if I resize Weather the tile starts working again, just not on the largest size.

    I don't use any other of these new apps except Weather and News, the rest bore me.

    Do you remember a small program called Weatherzone Weather Tracker? It has been discontinued but I like it on my PCs. It does get it's info from BOM and updates ever 10 minutes, or whatever frequency you choose.

    Cheers.

    I've just finished doing a clean install on one machine and for some strange reason I cannot connect to one site using M$ Edge on this machine but have no problems with any other sites. I can access the site with IE 11, Chrome, Cyberfox and Firefox on that machine, just not Edge. I can access the site using Edge on two other Win10 machines on the same network.

    I've cleared the cache, cookies and other data but still cannot connect.

    The site is my.gov.au in case it matters.

    Any ideas?

    It just opened for me in Edge. What is happeing when you try to open it, is it timing out?

    I get a "Something went wrong" (or similar) with a suggestion to refresh the page or search for what I want, neither of which help. I'm on another machine now and can still access the site with it.

    Fixed it! I had set Edge to only block third-party cookies but when I tried to log in here I was told I needed to allow cookies. Check the setting and it was blocking all cookies, so changed it back to block only third-party cookies and problem solved!

    Here's what I was getting.
