When I select FindMyPast hints on both a Windows10 PC and Windows 11 Laptop I get "You are using an unsupported browser" "Download Microsoft Edge"
Both machines have Microsoft Edge as Default browser.
This problem has arisen recently but I don't know when.
I can't use the browser window to Login to FindMyPast either but can select Internet - Open Web Search Window and uise for searching the web but if I go to FindMyPasy via this window I get the same unsupported version message.
* Unsupported browser for FindMyPast matches

Re: Unsupported browser for FindMyPast matches
This has been discussed many times...
FMP no longer supports IE.
FH6.2 uses IE as its internal browser, so FMP (and many other sites) will no longer work if you're using the internal browser with FH6.
Your choices: switch to FH7 (which uses Edge as its internal browser); or switch to using an external browser (Chrome, Firefox, Edge etc.)

Re: Unsupported browser for FindMyPast matches
If I change settings to open external web browser it opens Microsoft Edge which works ok.
On further checking I closed the browser window and went through process again and the following message appeared -
{"statusCode":400,"error":"Bad Request","message":"Invalid cookie header"}
I do seem to remember that The browser that used to get opened was Internet Explorer although my default browser has been Microsoft Edge since it came out.

Have you tried deleting all the Find My Past Cookies on your web browser?

Re: Unsupported browser for FindMyPast matches
Just tried deleting cooking but get same problem.
I shall probably upgrade when it is less busy at home as I don't usually get too much time using Family Historian.
