Windows 10: Microsoft Forums Not Displaying Correctly

Starting last night, the MS 'Community' forums (answers.microsfot.com) started displaying oddly. A number of elements seemed misplaced. A prime example is attempting to reply to a thread. The reply window now looks like this:





I'm seeing this in both Chrome and Edge. Do they share cached elements that might affect display? Other sites are behaving normally. Before I wiped out cache, cookies, etc. I thought I see if others are seeing the same thing.

Thanks,
Keith

Email not displaying correctly

We suggest that you use the Windows Device Recovery Tool. It'll install the latest version of Windows approved for your phone. This will remove everything including your apps, games, texts, call history, music, and photos. Please
back up your stuff to avoid data loss.

For more details check Windows Device Recovery Tool Faq.

Let us know if it helps.

 

Email not displaying correctly

Since my last software upgrade emails don't display correctly and I have no notifications of texts.

It displays properly for me using Firefox 59 BETA 14..Maybe refresh the page ??

 

Could it be that in you post you quote answers.microsfot.com whereas it should be answers.microsoft.com

 

I do not believe he would even get to the site using that. I think it was a typo.*Wink

 

I apologize for the typo in the title. I'm visually impaired and sometimes miss those things, but . I'm not a one-time user of the forums, I'm a frequent contributor:

Not only have I refreshed the page, I've restarted. And again, I'm seeing this in both Edge and Chrome ---- do they share the same cache of style sheets or whatever might be affecting layout (HTML is not my strength).

 

Try IE and see if it works.

 

I'm seeing the same behavior in IE.

 

Are you signed in? It works in Firefox as shown below. Restart your Machine ..??

 

I've restarted at least 10 times.

The Home Page is messed up for me everywhere!

 

Hi,
Yep got some java sludge/ bad cache MS community uses a boat load of cookies
I always feel dirty visiting that nasty site haven't been there in over a year.

 

Thank you,, Edwin!
I thought MS might be playing with the site. I've been seeing a notice about feedback changing at the bottom of pages such as this:
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/pow...w=powershell-6
So I guess MS is "improving" the user experience once again
*Eek

Guess I'll just wait it out and play with PowerShell for the day!
