Hmmm not browsing but opening a new window... Rats... OK so you can lead a horse to water... I open a new window, drag my photo over the tree and hold, when I release it loads up and is visible, when I insert it is gone?

 

I'm all out of ideas now, I works for me. Maybe Norri will come back with something. Possibly still a setting somewhere.

 

Appreciate everyone's help. All suggestions work right up to the point of hitting the insert button and it all goes away. Where ? no idea where the pictures go but not on my post. Some where somebody is wondering where all these jag pictures are coming from.

 

No more ideas I'm afraid, it has to be a setting but I'm not sure what.
I did the pic below by using "browse your device" navigating to the folder, highligting the pic then clicking the "open" button at the bottom of the pop up window then insert.

 

That works for me.

 

When I compose a long, picture heavy post, I write it up in Notepad FIRST (saving once in a while in case of computer freeze), having already renamed the pictures I want to use.

Then, in the body of the text in Notepad, I put, (insert, picture name) between carets "< >" on a separate line.

That way, when I'm finally ready to write up a post, pictures are already named for easy location. Then I simply Copy/Paste from Notepad to the compose screen, insert the correct pictures (careful to remove the picture name in carets), proof read a few times with Preview Post, and when I'm satisfied, hit Submit.

If some disaster happens while I'm in the midst of composing, nothing is really lost as my text is saved on the desktop and pictures properly named and saved in a specific folder, so it takes minimum time to do it again if necessary.
