1367770 2014-02-16 22:41:00 I'm running Win8.1.

Today, and only today, I keep getting a request to sign in or register even when I have done so. Why is that?

On the same PC I have a dual boot with WIN7 and I have no problem with that.

In Win 8.1 I have deleted my shortcut to pressf1 and then re- installed it but to no avail?

1367772 2014-02-17 03:25:00 Doesn't seem to be the problem. When I get the error coming up, if I "refresh" everything comes back to normal. Strange to me! Bryan (147)
1367773 2014-02-17 07:04:00 Try accessing the forum with this link: http://pressf1.pcworld.co.nz

Sign in and tick "remember me". See if that helps.

1367774 2014-02-17 07:23:00 Thank you Jen. I will monitor it as is seems to work other than having to refresh, I seem to land on the last time I entered pressf1. By refreshing I get to the current state of play. Bryan (147)
1367775 2014-02-24 17:54:00 My problem seems to be a refresh timing issue between Pressf1 and my Win 8.1.

I still have to refresh after I sign in but also once I get into say CHAT and then refresh again when I get onto the topic.

Times are shown as the previous day and do not update automatically. On the same PC I also dual boot with Win 7 (occasionally) and have absolutely no problems. Having to refresh so often although a chore is no great problem but I would like to resolve it.

It would seem that the refresh of pressf1 and my Win 8.1 are not in sync.

1367776 2014-02-25 02:00:00 Seems I made a change in IE to not allow the IE to check new web page updates, I had set the browsing history to Never instead of every-time I visit the web page. Bryan (147)
