I'm using a tiny Windows 10 computer the size of two Zippo lighters placed end to end and running the Chrome browser. What's funny is that any changes that I make to the Chrome browser on the Win 10 computer show up in the Slimjet browser on my Win 7 laptop. I'm wondering if any security issues with Win 10 will affect my Win 7 laptop because they seem to be joined at the hip? I like the Slimjet browser and may install it on the tiny Win 10 computer. Right now I have 4 browsers installed and am giving them all a try. Edge, Internet Explorer, Chrome and Pale Moon. I often switch browsers depending on what I'm doing. Oh well, here I go with Slimjet. ヽ(ヅ)ノ

Same here. Edge doesn't allow you to organize, manipulate bookmarks
and it now stores them in a system type file that isn't human readable.
I tried it for a few days and the drawbacks far outweighed any benefits,
ie I've yet to have the need to mark up a webpage and send it to someone.
I can see how that would be useful for some people, but not really for me.
So, I too went with Chrome.

You can default your browser to anyone you want. I use Firefox.
Also under Win10 you can go back to last IE, I think 11. I had to do it
to use script at remote site I connect to.

Ayep. Which is also the reason why I copied the post here. Edge does
some rendering work for some applications that don't actually have
'code' for a GUI...As in, executable code.

This isn't new to Windows 10, though. Windows XP did it too. Norton
Antivirus 2003 was a rocking example of what I'm writing about, too.
it's gui, including the installer was html pages, rendered with the
IE built into Windows XP. If something was wrong with IE, you
couldn't actually complete the installation. Even if norton itself
had no problems, you couldn't complete the install, because, it was
dependant on IE doing the heavy lifting.

This concept does reduce development time and costs, since you don't
have to write actual code for a GUI, but, it has the side effect of
requiring the rendering engine you're using instead to be working
correctly.

You can disable edge from being 'used' er, by you, to some level,
but, it's not totally dead and you aren't going to actually remove
it, either. Windows 10 depends on it for behind the scenes work that
users typically don't give a second thought to. As is clearly obvious
if you read the replies to this thread. Sheesh!

This is what happens when various companies with power elect to 'dumb
down' the computers and convince users to treat them like they would,
say, a toaster oven. Malware still requires the PEBKAC to do it's
thing, most of the time. And, that's plentiful; Hell, it's more
plentiful now than it ever was. Just take the replies in this thread
for an example of it.

Well, since you asked...

I have taught several university classes, per the request of the
instructor/professor. As an expert guest on the subject. [g] It's not
everyday you can get a published, internationally recognized, actual
'hacker' to attend your class and help educate the future. Not a
script kiddie mind you, but, the real thing. ROFL!

Granted, they were specialized classes for very specific IT related
concepts. So, the 'students' already had a general idea of the
subject matter and I didn't have to hold their hands or use crayons.
They understood the material well enough that I could get specific
and actually use my time to teach them some finer details of
it...Rather than explain, say, how some applications use Edge on
Windows 10 to 'render' the GUI, because they don't actually have
executable code for one. Like, oh, say, this topic.

Have you farted in a space suit?

Don't you have some prisoner to take your aggressions out on? A rough
ride, cold shower, something along those lines mebbe? You know,
you're field of 'expertise'

I bet you got off on beating up the smarter kids you went to school

only yourself. Keeps the chances of getting it wrong and looking like
an idiot while doing so smaller. Just friendly advice.

And you were pushing Chrome. (I personally dislike
Chrome)

I didn't use the word, Chrome in my 'bitching'. I don't even run
Chrome. The url contents might have been 'pushing' it, but, *I*
wasn't.

Oh, and, I don't care for Chrome, either. Not since I had to manually
remove a hijacker from a copy, only to have it come right back when
the great and uber powerful google resynched; thanks to them being
logged into google and it literally, BACKING UP THE MALICIOUS script
code.

Now, whenever I'm forced to deal with a chrome hijacking issue, I
make damn sure the user isn't signed into google with it before I
start! And , I disable the sync feature for plugins,addons, whatever
chrome calls them these days; so when I'm done, google doesn't come
right behind me and re-install it.

Oh, I suspect you have, without knowing it was edge....*sigh*

I'm a happy camper.

Ignorance is bliss so some tell me. Sometimes, I do wish I could be
like them. I really do. I might be surprised more often.


Nope, absolutely not, never, ever, ever see Edge. Never
makes an appearance. You can set your browser to whatever
you want. Just because Edge comes with W-10 doesn't mean
it can't be disabled.

You're being arrogant so you should be blissfully happy.

I don't know but I've seen this dang Russian popup on this little Win 10 computer that first showed up on a Vista system I cleaned ransomware off of for a friend then I got on the Internet with it and it was behaving itself but every now and then there was this popup in Russian. I'm thinking there is something that can get into the cloud and sneaks in when browsers are synced. I'm going to have to do some research on it. ヽ(ヅ)ノ

You too? I keep seeing Putin's face popping up which encourages me to do
things I don't wanna do.


OMG! I kept seeing it too. It turned me into a Deplorable and made me vote for Trump against my will. I was possessed. Of course most people think that I'm possessed anyway. ヽ(€¢€¿€¢)ノ

You misunderstood what I wrote. if a program has html instead of it's
own actual executable code to render the graphical user interface,
EDGE will render it for the program, without identifying itself as
edge. It won't look like a web browser to you at all. It'll look like
the programs authors intended for their GUI to look, instead.

Windows 10, despite your efforts to 'disable' it also uses Edge to
render some of the screens you see when you actually use the OS
itself. It's one of the reasons you can't actually remove it. Windows
10 itself, uses it. You can elect not to surf the web with it, but,
you can't really stop Windows 10 and some apps from using it to
render their own GUIs.

Just like win9x, etc etc etc used IE to render some of it's own
screens, without appearing to look anything like IE while doing so.

Am I explaining what I meant better?

You're being arrogant so you should be blissfully happy.

Although my post can certainly seem that way, I'm not actually being
arrogant in it. I was trying to explain something in a way which
clearly didn't make sense to you. For that, I do apologize.

Wrong. Go back and read what I said. Aside, I use Firefox. My wife
has Win10 so I put FF on it. Edge was messing with URLs I put on her
desktop. I detest Chrome -- it lasted about two minutes when I did
try it and I blew it off.

Comprende?

I agree with you and we are doing the same thing. If these people
have problems with Windows 10 they should go to Windows Community for their problems and stop complaining here.

I was the first one to mention I used Chrome. Edge does not work for me
with email so it is useless.

Never tried Firefox so I cannot comment on it. I tried Chrome, liked
it, just kept using it. Seems you and others did not have my luck with
it. I use three computers on a regular basis, plus and Android phone.
I like the fact that I have compatibility, saved passwords and calendar
no matter where I am.

So we are on the same page with Chrome.

I think I was responding to the OP and got the thread trangled.
