    Now there is no 7 day catch up, think I'll give it a miss when the subscription runs out. Plenty of free live streaming apps out there and the stream quality is improving.

    Live streaming is not a problem.  It is an alternative catch up for UK TV (in one place) that I miss.

  2. Some modern laptops like Lenova and ASUS have a "power Management feature" which cuts off battery charging until it drops to a pre-determined level. It then only charges back up to another pre-determined level which eliminates trickle/surge charging and reduces charge cycles.

    The new Edge has a has Favorites manage option.

     

    Click on the Favorites star on top right and follow the through to Manage Favorites.

     

     

    Thanks but I am aware of that function but it has nothing like the facilities of EdgeManage.

    There is another icon that I see on some programs (not all) but have no idea what it means. It is something like this: ((,))

    That is showing on all progs that are transmitting at the moment and also channels  that are off air just now.  (that is my best guess at any rate!)

  5. I used to use a programme called "EdgeManage" to manage my Microsoft Edge Favourites but it no longer works on the latest version of Edge.  Their website states it is not now compatible.

    Does anyone know of an alternative?

    I tend to spend a bit more on my laptops so maybe this is something that is coming on the budget models. Apologies. Currently using an MSI laptop which was about $1500. 

    I would agree with that.  I should have said "the cheaper end of the market".

    On the recorded program you will see a 'watch later' it shows a cloud with an 'x' in it, click on this and then confirm.

    Thanks, I have now been able to clean my screen up.

     It is not very intuitive is it?

    Don't buy Apple and you'll find this is not true. I've never owned a laptop which didn't have a removable battery. 

    When did you last buy a laptop or have a look round a computer shop laptop display?

    Most manufacturers are making the batteries more and more difficult to remove/replace in order to build in early obsolescence.
