IE11 does seem to be getting flakier these days. I had a problem with pdf files not displaying in the browser and whilst I realise it's a very different problem to yours, clearing the cache and restarting IE solved the issue. Worth a try.


[Cue numerous posts saying we should be using Firefox or Chrome]

thanks , this has been happening for a few weeks , I have cleared the cashe , checked for any oddball changes and checked for weird or unusual addons , checked google but cannot seem to find this fault

There is a known issue with Avast and multiple tabs in IE11.
Do you use avast ?


Have you tried resetting IE through the advanced menu ?

thanks andy , I did spot that link , going back to win 8 days on google


win 10 64 bit professional with default win defender , the only adjustment to the default settings , is smartfilter deletion , as it was causing me problems

And it still does it after re-setting IE ??


How about ie with no addons ??

no major changes from 12mths ago , but has happened recently

Have you reset IE? Always worth a go once you have tried the obvious things. Check the Advanced tab in Internet Settings.

ie has been reset to default several times , and cookies and files deleted (several times)
