Is anyone using windows 10 and lost their visual editor? I can’t seem to reload the page using Ctrl F5 and now can’t post anything using visual. Help please!

The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

I have the same problem – in the classic editor. I also tried clearing the browser cache and it didn’t help.

I will look into this. I’m having trouble getting Windows 10 to load. While I work on that, may I ask what browser and browser version you are using? Would it be possible for you to try from a different browser on the same computer as a test to see if the problem happens for you in more than one browser?

I have Microsoft Edge. I would really like to avoid downloading other browsers if at all possible.

Microsoft Edge here too, and I also cleared cache and cookies with no success.

I just downloaded Firefox and don’t seem to get the same issue, must be an Edge issue.

I tested the WP Admin editor with Edge 12 on Windows 10 via browserstack.com, and I was able to see the HTML editor but not the Visual editor. There are no tabs for switching back and forth between Visual and HTML. I made a screenshot and reported the issue.

In the mean time, can you try using the editor at https://wordpress.com/post ? I tested that in Edge, and it worked for me in my test.

The developers reported back that they fixed the problem with the WP Admin visual editor in the Edge browser. I tested and confirmed it’s working for me. Can you also check and let me know if you’re still having any trouble? Note that you may need to clear your browser cache if it doesn’t work when you first re-check it.
