What is up with edge?

[littlelum]

Recently, Microsoft edge has been real weird. I can't download anything, and when I go to youtube, I can't change sites, and the only way to fix the latter problem is to run C Cleaner. Is anyone else having similar problems?

This may make me sound like a techical support representative but have you tried to clear its cache and cookies?

I'd recommend doing what @Hypernova recommended.

Do other browsers give you this same problem?

Course clear! You got a card.

Yes, I tried that. It worked, but I went back to youtube and it did it again. Also, Firefox had absolutely no problems.

It could be system related issues and/or a recently installed software is interfering with Edge's functionality. Try these instead:
- uninstall/reinstall recently updated/installed software
- use system restore to restore to the last point where Edge is working well
- open Windows PowerShell (Admin) and run “SFC /scannow”.

Where is it redirecting you to?

Wait, what are we talking about?

List of projects I eventually plan to finish after the indefinite hiatus is over, assuming I don't abruptly cancel them:

Spoiler

Mario's Rather Unusual Trilogy (Mario's slightly unusual Boss Rush (Completed), Mario vs. Some Unusual Foes (In development), Mario's VERY Unusual Final Frontier (In development))
Sonic's Foray into Random/Unusual Zones (spin-off of Unusual Trilogy, in development)
Angry Birds Slingshot Frenzy (In development)
Super Mario Flashback: Really Good Edition (In development)
Super Hilda DX (In only conceptual phase)

Yes, I am aware that I have about 6 or so fangame projects currently in development at the same time. And yes, I am also aware that all of this is very ambitious.

+ List of projects I'm helping out with in some small capacity during my hiatus:

Spoiler

Super Mario Bros Dimensions 2 (as a spriter, only for Mario's sprites)
MFGG Community Fangame Project 3 (as a spriter)
WordGirl ReWired (as a artist)

Your first mistake is using Microsoft's browser.

Wait, it magically stopped being buggy (at least the youtube part)

I highly recommend contacting Microsoft support if registry cleaning and reinstalling of the program don't fix it. Is there a particular reason you're using edge over Firefox or a Chromium-based browser?
