Im sorry to ask so many questions. I got a message in edge saying dont turn off the comp. Should it stay on all the time
 
Click on search.
Type in control panel
Open control panel
Go to program and features.
Can you see Nortons or McAffee in the list?
If yes Right click on the program

Will do that in the am, then work on firefox, and how to clear cache
 
I turn mine off most nights.
I only leave it on if I have web pages open I need to access.
I don't know if this question belongs in the old thread or this thread, so I will ask it here.
Can you get the bank site now?

With all the trouble connecting to the net last night will turning off the comp lose the internet?
 
Have you downloaded and installed Firefox yet?
It is always good to have a second browser in case for what ever reason one decides to go bad.

Referring to Post # 2 you are on the wrong screen,
That is to set the browser to clear the same things just when you close the browser.

When I get to my Windows system will post images and instructions.
 
While in settings for edge select Choose What to Clear

The following screen will come up that you were referring to.

You can also get to the same place by clicking on the the three horizontal dots.
Then select History
