Windows 10 Microsoft Edge Browser Issues

[Osman Zakir]

As the title may suggest, I'm making this post to ask about certain issues I'm having with this site on Microsoft Edge in Windows 10.

There are times when the browser restarts itself when I'm trying to post code on here. I have to do it on another browser, like Chrome. It doesn't always happen, though; it seems like it's only when I try to post a really long code or more than code snippet.

So I was wondering if anyone on here who has enough experience with writing code to check stuff for browsers could check to see if the problem I'm experiencing is occurring due to compatibility issues with Edge?

I hear that Edge uses newer technology than the one some sites use. That might be the reason.

It's a website. HTML/CSS and some javascript. If it breaks on one browser you can safely put the blame on the browser.

Even so, is there a chance that the admin managing the site would fix the issue after troubleshooting it? I know it's probably selfish of me to ask this for just one browser, but still.

Especially a POS non-standards-compliant Micro$oft one.

vBulletin is a commercial web forum manager. I don't think Alex can do much from here. You are better of taking it to their own forum. IIRC access to the bugtracker is public, so you can fill in a bug report too.

You're talking about Internet Explorer, not Edge. Edge is built from the ground to be standards compliant.
That said... Windows 8.2 was released way too early, way too buggy, and so is its new browser. Avoid both like the plague.

Uh-uh, aren't they all? HTML is here and CSS is here.

IE8 was made specifically to troll the standard groups. It was never meant to be taken seriously, but one of the janitor's accidentally threw the source in the trash, and eventually it was found and passed around as a sort of joke.

See if you can generate a dump file on application crash in Windows 10, if nothing else debugging it could tell you the faulting module. I've only ever done this with BSOD dumps, but I found this post recently (I haven't tested it, but it would be good diagnostically if it works) Generating a memory dump for a crashing process - Windows 7 Help Forums

Also, certain parts of this site use flash, at least for myself they do, for instance the "upload image" file selection dialog uses flash to access the hardware. Most likely the crash is due to some 3rd party application or extension, but that's just inductive (true most of the time), but that's really just guess work on my part, I don't know anything about that browser.
