Default Re: IE11 won't add favorites?

Be warned, in Windows 10, they just found out that ANY Game that uses SafeDisc Or Securom DRM or other type of copy protection like it, where it writes a undeletable hash of serial to the drive, will NOT work, and you can't play the game. Here's the story: http://www.rockpapershotgun.com/2015...c-securom-drm/

Yet another reason I'm waiting till their first service pack.

***** BTW, with your Internet Explorer 11 issue. have you tried the 'Internet Explorer (without add-ons) and loading it? its in Accessories/system tools/and run Internet explorer (with no add-ons).

Run it, and if it works, turn off some of the unknown addons.. (go to add ons and 'show all'. turn off any that don't say Microsoft. and maybe keep flash. but turn it OFF for the first try. close it out, then run the normal IE exe... if it works, that could be the issue.

IF it doesn't work, you may have a virus, boot into safe mode, and to do this, click Start, type 'Command Prompt' or cmd in the Search box, right-click Command Prompt, and then click Run as administrator. If you are prompted for an administrator password or for a confirmation, type the password, or click Allow.

Then

At the command prompt, type the following command, and then press ENTER:
sfc /scannow

--------------
Note Do not close this Command Prompt window until the verification is 100% complete. The scan results will be shown after this process is finished.

After the process is finished, you may receive one of the following messages:
•Windows Resource Protection did not find any integrity violations.

This means that you do not have any missing or corrupted system files.

•Windows Resource Protection found corrupt files and successfully repaired them. Details are included in the CBS.Log %WinDir%\Logs\CBS\CBS.log.

To view the detail information about the system file scan and restoration, go to How to view details of the System File Checker process.

•Windows Resource Protection found corrupt files but was unable to fix some of them. Details are included in the CBS.Log %WinDir%\Logs\CBS\CBS.log.

Here is a visual aide for ya. It fixed many issue I've had over the years.

Also, do you have an up-to-date virus scanner? if not, you need one. and a malware scanner--the BEST and most popular one (free) is Malwarebytes. go download it here:
the free version. and run a full scan. if it detects stuff, it'll clean it up. (and let me know what it discovered). via posting a log maybe).
(Malwarebytes free): https://www.malwarebytes.org/mwb-download/

And last... if none of this works, try what Cyril said. it's on this URL. your favorites dir may be deleted or renamed? or you are logged in under a new username? anywho--check this out too:

In any event, Let me know!! wanna get you up and running.
