since Wednesday with Windows 11 updates and and Edge Update to Version 125.0.2535.51 (Official build) (64-bit)

I have been having issue accessing "X" thru Edge Browser.

Have 2 identical fully updated Windows 11 laptops. BOTH when trying to access X thru Browser favorities I would get:

I will repeat my posts to X which NO ONE responds to.

AS of Thursday"

"OK 2 days later and I still ask WHY is this doing this on Edge! Even reset Edge that cleared ALL my saves cookies and really pissed me off and this still does NOT work."

AS OF THIS MORNING - Saturday

"OK ON identical Window 11 laptops with identical updates & Edge Favorites Bar - 1 laptop shows AND LOADS AS https//:https://x.com/home and works the other shows same but it loads as https//:http://x.com/ AND DOES NOT WORK"

BTW it shows on Favorite Bar as you hover over it.

Anyone have any idea how to fix this????

NEVER had any issues when I use Chrome

    Although, I will admit I don't quite follow what you have said, but be that as it may. And, never mind the fact that you are replying to a post from May...

    The issue originated with X or 'Twitter'. It was fixed long ago. If it is, still, listed in your Apps, remove it, UNinstall it. Go to MS Store &, NOW, grab X (formerly Twitter), the Store still calls it Twitter & install it. NOW, it will succeed.

    OK that worked BUT I'm not happy with the way it works - TURN OFF TRACKING???!!!!

    I don't want that. Is there no other choice.

    PLUS - On the laptop that is using the same Edge Favorites... X loads as Twitter and Tracking is NOT disabled and works great. Makes no sense.

    how do I turn tracking back on for the 2nd laptop for X???

    thanks

    Think this is really a twitter problem not Edge.

    I have exactly the same incident as well. I dunno who to turned to. Who can we email so can fix this Microsoft Glitches? Anyone out there know how to solve this problem? If this continues, I'm dumping all MS products for its inefficiency. Baidu is way better than this!!!
