EvilPixie Feb 2016 6:49am, 24 Feb 2016 11,400 posts	Quote Pin EvilPixie My Garmin has stopped linking to Fetch. Apparently I don't have the plug in suddenly. Click link ... Chrome doesn't support Garmin any more. Edge (the new IE) doesn't either and as I have windows 10 I don't have IE anymore which appears to be the only supported browser. Any suggestions?!

Badger Feb 2016 9:14am, 24 Feb 2016 6,968 posts	Quote Pin Badger The browsers are all dropping support for various plugin technologies. Garmin started moving away from Communicator fairly early, so Express and Connect Mobile are getting mature (though I think Express is still a bit patchy for older watches). Browser support for Java is going to go fairly soon too, which isn't going to affect anything Garmin-related, but there are a lot of websites out there using Java applets which are going to need updating to be usable at all.

You can pin it to your task bar of start by simply 'right clicking' the IE icon and choosing the appropriate option.
