  2. This page is insecure (broken HTTPS).

    Hi,

    I am getting Not secure error for Movie Tickets, Plays, Sports, Music Concerts, Theater & Reviews BookMyShow in CHROME browser. When checked details of error, it says
    This page is insecure (broken HTTPS). SHA-1 Certificate 'the certificate for this site expires in 2017 or later'

    Have tried clearing cookies, cache etc.as advised by website tech support.

    This error starter after updating the windows 10 recently. Kindly advise what to be done, as website technical support says they are already using SHA 256 certificate and the error is from my side only, as for them the site is secure.

  3. Why is Internet Explorer working better than Edge

    I think this is why Internet Explorer still is around in Windows 10 and not just Edge. It's because some sites still don't like Edge don't make their site Edge friendly or still only worry about compliant concerns with Chrome, Firefox and IE. Let's face
    it numbers get web designers attention. Edge is somewhere in the single digits in market share with browsers. Until that get's a whole lot bigger many sites probably won't test its behavior on their site. Heck, even a site like Lenovo in the US flat out tells
    you that Edge is not supported for some of their support systems. It's IE, Chrome, Firefox. You always have that option in Edge in the drop down menu to open page in IE to see if it works better?
