  1. Microsoft Edge Only Connects to Website When VPN is Turned On


    Microsoft Edge must have VPN on to connect to websites. Firefox and Chrome on the same PC are operating OK with or without VPN. The problem started after the latest Windows 10 feature update (1803). This appears to be a BUG with Edge.

  3. Microsoft Edge audio issue with a website (and perhaps others?)

    Thanks for the suggestion Melowin. I followed the steps but unfortunately this did not resolve the audio issue for the website http://www.howtopronounce.co.in/. Still no audio.

    In contrast the website https://www.howtopronounce.com/ I mentioned in my original posting was not impacted by this change either.

    3. Select add someone else on this PC.
    4. Enter a user name and hit next.

    Step 3:
    It could also happen because of network issue. I suggest you to try with different network connection and check if it helps.
