Solved Edge Reporting Problem With Page Loading

  • 1

When I use Edge to try to go to https://www.physicsforums.com/

I have recently been getting this error message page:

———————————————

This page is having a problem loading

We tried to load this page for you a few times, but there is
still a problem with this site. We know you have better things
to do than to watch this page reload over and over again so try
coming back to this page later.

———————————————

A few days ago I was able to get in, but not since then.

I just tried two website up/down testers:

https://downforeveryoneorjustme.com…

got no result at all. I waited a long time.

https://down.com/

says: It’s you! Looks like http://physicsforums.com is online.

Any ideas? Physics Forums is as safe as Computing.net.
I’ve used it for years.

      I find that the biggest issue I have with Edge is that it tries to keep everything that you had last time to ‘speed browsing’. The problem with this method is that errors and problems come back as well. The first thing I do is to close the browser (Edge) in all instances (it will not work if you keep one page open and close only other(s)) and reopen it. If that does not work I do these in order:
      Go to Settings, Advanced Settings and ‘Choose What to Clear’, select all except Passwords and OK it.
      Close Browser.
      Click on the search area and type ‘My PC’ or ‘My Computer’ and select My PC
      Right click on your C drive and select Properties.
      Select ‘Disk Clean Up’
      Place checks on all or nearly all and OK, then OK (this can take a while)
      When finished, Start>Shut Down>Restart (Important to use Restart, not turning off and starting because this clears many more things).

      At home I prefer Firefox.

      You have to be a little bit crazy to keep you from going insane.
