Mine does not do that. I don't know what you mean.

Are you using a tablet/smart phone? That is a possibility.

I have a popup blocker maybe that's why I don't see it. I have Adguard on Chrome. Not sure which is blocking popups.
I know Adguard cuts the big ad at the top out.

I will go in through a differeny browser ! And check to see if my pop up blocker is still on
I doubled checked that my pop up blocker is on and also added this forum. Tried Fire Fox,IE and Chrome and still get that Help Guide pop up.. Bet it only does it for non tech people like me lol. Oh well Guess I will live with it.. Thanks for trying to help

I get that after I clear browsing history. But only once.

I haven't paid that much attention, but I think the same thing with me.
Up Date:
Cleared my browsing history and first had to log in. Then I got the pop up screen. In small letters in the middle of the screen it says "exit guide" selected and hit enter and it doesn't show up again until I again clear browsing history.
Up Date again:
I am looking at different subjects on the forum. It doesn't matter which one. I now get that pop up screen all the time.
Up Date again again:
This pop up won't stop. Going to reboot and see if something changes.
OK I'm back and the pop up window is constant now.

No I did that and it still the same. I used CCleaner. I'm going to try the browser cleaning tool on my PC. I have Windows 10.
Well I did that and still the pop up is there. Early this morning never got it.

Where is your browser cleaning tool located or is it a downloaded program ?

Upper right hand corner of screen is 3 dots.
Click on that and you will see a menu.
Select "More Tools"
When that opens select "Clear Browsing Data" hit enter, sit back and let it do it's thing.
Another update:
Just ran my paid subscriptions to Norton and MalwareBytes just to see. Same thing no change with the pop up screen.

Thanks. I went to the 3 dots and no menu link :O But you said didn't work anyway lol.. FYI I can search and read with no pop up.. Only when I log in does that pop up show :O


Cat Man HHR 03-22-2019 01:15 PM

Put your cursor (arrow) on the three dots and left click your mouse button. Menu will show up.

Cat Man HHR 03-22-2019 01:17 PM

Ole Blue
Are you reading this ?
When this help screen was new didn't you install it ?
Thanks

donbrew 03-22-2019 02:17 PM

I never clear my history or cookies. Maybe that is why I never see those popups.

You need to specify what browser you are using as they all have different options. I.E., Edge, Chrome, Firefox etc.
Windows 10 has both I.E. and Edge.

Oldblue 03-22-2019 02:48 PM

Cat Man , no, I didn’t install it, When I use log out , I get a screen showing, cookies cleared.
I’m using Apple iOS 12.1.2 or so on my IPhone 8S.
It is to do with the Windows 10 and the pop up blockers.
Oldblue.

Oldblue 03-22-2019 04:22 PM

OK I'm in with my Windows 10 laptop, no issues , no pop ups, no hassels.

Radco 03-22-2019 04:43 PM

Does it on my Win 10. Fire Fox Chrome and IE

Oldblue 03-22-2019 04:47 PM

Try a reboot

donbrew 03-22-2019 05:06 PM

Install adguard on Chrome. I seem to recall the latest FireFox update did something to popup blockers.
