Hi,josh_bodner
Thanks for your reply concerning the autoplay issue, I was able to 'enable' the block option in settings before that option in flags got removed. While it does seem to help on some site's, on others it has virtually little to no effect.

By the way, I'd have to agree with what you had stated in one of your replies concerning your default browser. My default is currently firefox beta, especially now since the dns over https has been made available.- HotCakeXMar 10, 2020MVPYes it's still experimental
