Hello, I hope you can help.

Tonight, I clicked "unsubscribe" from an email that I thought was a marketing piece.  It took me to a browser screen where it said unsubscribe and when I clicked that button Microsoft edge crashed and will not open back up.  it will flicker but that's it.  Any help would be appreciated.  Thanks Nicole

Hello NicoleD and welcome to WTT.

My name is Satchfan and I would be glad to help you with your computer problem.

Please read the following guidelines which will help to make cleaning your machine easier:

  • please follow all instructions in the order posted
  • please continue to review my answers until I tell you your machine appears to be clear. Absence of symptoms does not mean that everything is clear
  • all logs/reports, etc. must be posted in Notepad. Please ensure that word wrap is unchecked. In Notepad click Format, uncheck Word wrap if it is checked
  • if you don't understand something, please don't hesitate to ask for clarification before proceeding
  • the fixes are specific to your problem and should only be used for this issue on this machine.
  • please reply within 3 days. If you do not reply within this period I will post a reminder but topics with no reply in 4 days will be closed!

IMPORTANT:

Please DO NOT install/uninstall any programs unless asked to.
Please DO NOT run any scans other than those requested

Satchfan,  I'm so grateful for your help -- I work 8:30-1:00ish during the week so it's very hard for me to get back to you right away.  I will run all the required steps you mention above and post the results.  thanks a lot

As long as you post within 3 days or let me know that you are delayed, that's not a problem.
