    Edge running W/o being started when firefox running


    I have noticed Edge runs whenever I start firefox. I first noticed this when running CCleaner. I can see Edge shutting down as CCleaner finishes. I am wondering if Edge is somehow watching and reporting what I do on Firefox.

    :)

  2. IE, Edge and Chrome run, but Firefox won't

    Monday, I applied the April update to my Lenovo G700 laptop.I normally use Firefox as my default browser, but this morning. it won't even run. Yesterday, I found that IE, Edge and Chrome work with Mail, but Firefox wouldn't; today, Firefox won't even run,
    whether from the Start menu or my taskbar shortcut. All I get is a "This app has been blocked by your System Administrator." message. Obviously, there's some setting that isn't set properly, but I don't know what it is or how to set it. Could anyone suggest
    a solution that would let Firefox run?

    Thanks

    Cannot run Edge - Browser Broker fails


    I have Windows 10 - version 1709 OS build 16299.192 X64

    Every time I start Edge it fails - I have attached a file listing information from the event viewer. I do not have any software restriction policies.

    If I set up another user account I can run Edge with no problems.

    Not sure what my next steps are.

    Thanks.
