    Why do I have to log in again every time I click on a link in a post ?. That normally shouldn't be a problem but as I have forgotten my password I cant . At the moment edge remembers my password ( I Think) but I don't know how to access it in edge
    Can anyone suggest a remedy ?

    Give yourself a password you can remember.

    Ok but should I have to log in again every time I click on a link in a post . I have already logged in to read the post in the first place so If that post contains a link I would like to read I have to reenter my user and password again? Is this normal , Yes or No. ?

    I have now got my password back by a bit of poking about in W10 and finding about non-existent credential passwords, etc, etc .

    I don't quite understand what you mean by a link in a post. A link to a different thread in the forum? A link to an article somewhere not on the forum?

    Either way, though, I don't have that issue.

    Do you tick the "Remember Me" box ?

    Its a link to a different thread or an thumbnail image in the forum , and the " remember me " box is ticked .

    OOOPs just discovered that the remember me box was not ticked . But it still showed my user name etc. so the forum knew it was me .
