    Deary me. I had a Microsoft windows update this morning which I accepted, I'm now back to shrinking the page to get things working on here. What a palaver, seems obvious it's the updates that are causing the problem.

    I still don't think you will see anything different. If I hover my mouse pointer over the notification bell icon or search it does not highlight plus clicking on them does nothing.

If I increase screen size to a readable 90 or 100% then notifications, search, forum headers, post reply cannot be selected. A video of the process would be better but I don't have the wherewithal to...

    I've just fired up my old laptop which is running Win10 and there are no problems. Both laptops are running Edge browser so for me it is windows 11 with the problem of zooming or removing Adblocker to make the page functional.
