At one point yesterday I restarted the computer and Windows Defender Security Center had a red x. I had it check for problems and it said my temporary Internet files had changed location. Made no sense to me. I told it to fix it and was taken to a page where I could reset Microsoft defaults. So, I did that.
Well, apparently it reset other defaults as well, as today I discovered my default Browser and pdf program had been changed. I hope I don't find anything else that matters!!
So now, when I went to my WordPerfect forum and then here, I had to log in again. I can't imagine why my computer defaults would affect that, but it's the only reason I can think of that both sites suddenly didn't know me.

Josette, please see my thread below; I too have a RED triangle ! Not secure at the address line...

Patti, I didn't have any red triangle or security issues. I'm guessing that part of re-setting defaults must have included deleting cookies. I just couldn't figure out why I had to log in again to sites where I'm usually automatically logged in.

Actually, after here, ALL sites I went to had the 'not secure' (no red anything); I just put the https:// before the URLs.

Anytime microsoft "updates" on my computer, I live in fear, loathing and terror as to what's now been screwed up. This is why I often long for the era when communication was a rotary-dial phone as the only way to do things. As much as it would urk me when my dad yammered about "da-good-ol'-days," at times I think he was right.
