Chris said < I've had IE and Firefox on all of my laptops from day #1, and now I find that neither of them are sufficient for accessing government websites. There is no way that I will have any Google application on my machines short of being executed by a firing squad. The only exception is an older version of Google Earth that I have on a WinXP machine that I have thoroughly sanitised. >

Like Nathan, my answer would be yes, you need a choice of browsers as not all web pages work on all versions of all browsers. Has anyone else had my latest problem: Edge stopped working at all when I installed the Creators' update for W10 on my desktop? (It opens for 10 - 15 seconds and then closes without me being able to do anything with it, and a re-installation of the update has not helped). Previously, when I installed that update on my laptop, my Corel Paradox database software stopped working but a subsequent MS update seems to have remedied that.
