I noticed an issue that I cannot resolve even after the basic troubleshooting (with Antivirus, Defender, etc..)
I use an Investment Portal and this portal asks me select a fund to invest my money. I choose the fund and a Modal pops up.
I need to enter the amount of $$ I want to invest and they force me to Download the product disclosure so I am aware how the product works. After the download the box "I accept the T&C" should be enabled and then I proceed clicking in the button "INVEST"
If I don't download the document the box cannot be ticked....and I cannot invest.
It was all working fine until a few months ago (cannot remember when) but now, even though I download the document the tick box will not be enabled.
The issue is happening in both Chrome and Edge
I have disabled my Antivirus....same behaviour.
Have disabled Defender on Windows 10....same behaviour.
However....I used the TOR Browser and it DOES WORK.
The problem is NOT with the Investment website as nobody else seems to be having the problem. Also, I used another website (for job application) that uses the same style of Modal and again it will NOT WORK.
So, what could be the problem then ?
Thanks

i'm struggling with the classic HTML input of type file. I was using it on my angular application and i had freeze sometimes, the whole browser became unresponsive, and the only thing that works is the scroll.
You can't click any buttons, select any text or even change tab on the browser for about 5 seconds. I tried a lot of different file type and sizes and it doesn't change any of this, it even freeze sometimes when i don't select any file in the explorer and i click the close button directly.
So I thought it was my implementation that was bad and i went to the Mozilla developper website where you have an example and I have exactly the same behaviour. I also tried to take only the HTML from the Mozilla website and put it alone on a .html file and again, same behaviour.
This does not occur 100% of the time, but I would argue that on my end it does it about 60/70 % of the times.
I tried it on chrome and Firefox (both up to date), on multiple computer (all running Windows though) and i have the same behaviour on all of them.
I don't have any error or anyting in the consoles.
I don't know what to do with this, i'm pretty sure it can't be the file's input on the whole web that are bugged, but i tried a lot of various things with always the same results. Should i report it somewhere? ( if so, where? ) Or what would you suggest to do to investigate this further?
I couldn't find anyone discussing this issue on the internet apart for this thread that had no solution, they also say in this thread that the bug is not reproducible in Edge, but i just tried and it does the same thing.
Thanks for reading me and for any help about this.
Chrome freezes for few seconds when after any use of file field.
It was because I had a shortcut in "Quick Access" menu in windows explorer. This shortcut has been linked with a folder shared by network. I've removed this shortcut and everything is good now.
Same here, I have a mapped network drive that is not responding, this make a 5 seconds delay. After unmapping the drive, no more delay. The delay is the same in firefox or chrome.
Same here, if you want to remove it, on Windows 10, click on the icon Quick access (blue star), then right click on the dead link appearing in the "Frequent folders" panel on the right panel and choose "Unpin/Remove from Quick access". There should be no error message.
I have recently changed web host providers, (from 123-reg to SiteGround) and have a HTML website. Now when I make a change via FTP through Filezilla, it says upload successful however I cannot see the change on my computer. The changes are there however, as when I test it via kproxy.com I can see the changes. I have tried clearing my browser cache several times and this has not fixed the issue. The changes can not be seen on my ipad/ phone, and also cannot be seen on another friends laptop and phone either.
Does anyone know what the issue is here? I have been using Filezilla for a couple years now and the changes have always been instant and seen just via a page refresh.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Try deleting any extension in your browser that could be hindering it e.g AdBlocker
OR
In your Chrome browser, open developers tools (CTRL + SHIFT + I).
Navigate to Application tab.
Choose Clear storage from the side menu
Hit Clear site data button.
Open up the dev console to the network tab. look at the request to see where the data is coming from. it could be stuck in your disk cache and to clear it
On your computer, open Chrome.
At the top right, click More
Click More tools. Clear browsing data.
At the top, choose a time range. To delete everything, select All time.
Next to "Cookies and other site data" and "Cached images and files," check the boxes.

I have a link in my app that points to an app protocol of type myProtocol://". Until a few days ago this was working completely fine, whenever you clicked on the link, the native app would open.
However, iOS9.2 seems to have broken this. Now what happens is when the links is clicked, I get a prompt to open the native app which disappears after roughly 1 second, not even close to giving the user enough time to access. Shortly afterwards I get prompted to go to the App Store to the app's page.
Any idea why this is happening and what changes in iOS9.2 that is causing this would be helpful.
It seems that with iOS9.2, Apple is making a move towards Universal Links and traditional deeplinking is not supported anymore. While I was not able to find any information published direct on iOS9.2 release notes, following links indicate the same:

Formerly it was possible in iOS to use the hook instagram://camera?caption=YourCaptionHere (from Mobile Safari, or elsewhere) to have the Instagram app open in camera mode with a pre-filled caption. However, that no longer seems to be the case as my previously working URL (hook) no longer populates a caption (though it does still open Instagram in camera mode).
I'm having trouble finding any current information on this, though the caption query string variable seems to have never been documented in the first place.
Does anyone know if this feature is still available under a different query string variable?
To be more clear, I have a link on a web page that attempts to open Instagram in camera mode with a caption. I have a JavaScript click event that checks after 500ms to see if the page is still open, then alerts the user to download the app if the link didn't work:
Open Instagram
Instagram provides documentation on iOS hooks. That documentation does not make any mention of a caption parameter, except sharing a photo via Obj-C (in which they call it annotation). Given the different naming, you could try instagram://camera?annotation=YourCaptionHere and it might even work, but this doesn't seem to be an officially-supported use case.
Further, to support your second paragraph, searching through the history of the docs on the wayback machine doesn't turn up any mention that caption was ever a supported argument... like you said. Interestingly, one of their co-founders claimed this was available 2 years ago... I guess they never made it official, then removed it?
So i've been banging my head against the wall trying to figure this out, and it's about time I ask for help. I have a flash audio recorder that is displaying a popup to the user asking them to allow microphone access using:
AS3 --
Security.showSettings(SecurityPanel.PRIVACY);
Now, on chrome it works perfect! Everything shows up correctly and looks like this:

Great. Now the issue is, on Firefox (and I believe IE9) it looks like:
http://postimage.org/image/mqp1kmcjj/
Notice how there are only 3 tabs in the second one (Firefox). Well, the second tab over is Privacy and allows you to "allow" or "deny" our website from accessing your mic. So it's a bit of an issue that that tab is not even visible... Any thoughts on that? I can't seem to find anywhere where anyone has had that same flash dialog box pop up with only 3 tabs.
Thanks in advance!
You can use [Allow][Deny] dialog:
It appears whenever you access microphone/camera by attaching them to NetStream.

As Sunil D. mentioned above, Firefox will not show some tabs in private/incognito mode. The problem is user can turn it on not only by opening new private window, but also by changing some regular Firefox preferences. Go to Firefox options, select "Privacy" tab and search for "History" group. There you will see a dropdown with "Firefox will:" label. There you can select "Never remember history" item and browser will show you a small tip:
Firefox will use the same settings as private browsing, and will not remember any history as you browse the Web.
Then your browser will be restarted. Further research revealed that Firefox really turns private mode on after such manipulations. Sunil D. and Jordan Reiter were both right - the problem can happen with users in private mode and problem can be solved by reinstalling Firefox with all it's configurations (including that history setting). Of course, it's much easier to ask users to change that setting. Also private mode detection with JavaScript can help to inform user about this expected problem.
