W10, Chrome and uploading media

I've just tried to upload a picture to ATS but apparently the 'browse' function on the uploader does not work. I tried using a 3rd party uploader as well and guess what... the browse function on that does not work either.

On a hunch I switched to Edge and miraculously the browse function works.

Now I'm not saying MS have done this deliberately but....

ETA: I was using Chrome originally.

I just tried it with Firefox and it worked.

I wouldn't trust win 10 ever after it pulled the self download stunt

And the wifi settings reek

I've figured it out! It only took 6 hours of my life but I've got it sorted now.

When I installed W10 it asked if I would find it more convenient to use a PIN to log in rather than my long password. I said yes.

Big mistake!

When I did this it created a new User account with the PIN but the new account only had user access not Administrator access.

After a long time of Googling and banging my head on the keyboard I figured out it it was simply a case of hitting [Control][Alt][Delete], selecting change user and then selecting Microsoft Account rather than PIN and typing in my old password.

Voila! Back to Admin access.
