I am having increasing issues with Chrome. I do have ad-blockers on Chrome. On the laptop, I'm using Edge. So many times, the scripts fail under chrome and I have to switch to Explorer or Edge to complete something.

THe laptop is old, 5+ years, but was top of the line then. On CPU comparisons, it still ranks at a mid to low mid level today. The laptop's main issue is a lack of memory (4MB and it is not replaceable or upgradable).

Let me research an ad-blocker for Edge.
