AOPA Weather and Google

[Robert C.]

Was wondering if anyone else has the same issue.

Using my work laptop (Lenovo X240) it doesn't matter if I use I.E. or Google Chrome, AOPA Weather says it's v2.3.8 and works beautifully

My personal laptop is a 2-year old ASUS, recently upgraded to Win10 from Win7. When I try and run AOPA Weather on this machine in Google Chrome I get an error type screen and an offer to tell me more about v2.3.7 I cannot find a way to point it to open v2.3.8.

But when i fire up I.E. (personal laptop) it goes straight to v2.3.8 and works fine. This has been the case for 2 years now, so the upgrade to Win10 didn't help (or break) anything.

I can't figure out why it wouldn't play nice with Google on one laptop even though it gets along well on another laptop.

Anyone have noticed something similar or have trouble shooting ideas?

Thanks in advance.

Robert

I'm clueless. Three possibilities I can think of offhand:

1. Is your Chrome the latest version? Has it been updated.

2. Try clearing your Chrome browser cache. That can be the cause of some issues like this.

3. Are you using an add-in or extension that might be interfering?

I haven't seen this but have had enough issues with Chrome that it's currently relegated to secondary browser with FireFox back to the front lines.

hadn't thought of clearing the browser cache, will do that when i get home. Thanks for the suggestion!

Not sure how I'd check the extensions, i'll have to research that.

Start with the cache. And if that doesn't work, you can treat it like a tripped alternator circuit. Disable all of them, see what happens and then re-add. You can also do that backwards. Or you can disable them backwards by getting rid of those you figure "do I really need this?" first.
