Is anybody else finding it difficult to move pieces in their web browser or is it just me? I find they flash briefly in their new place then jump back to their original place and I have to try 2 or 3 times. It happens both using the click and the drag method.

Can you report back with your web browser and operating system versions please?

Win 10, Chrome. It happens in Firefox too. I have a Dell Desktop. I suppose it could be my computer, but I haven't noticed any other websites not accepting my clicks.

If it is happening in both browsers then something else is at play here too.

Can you try Edge browser too, if you have Win 10?

Also, did this just start occurring recently? Any updates to your system/browser plugins installed immediately beforehand?

I WASN'T able to make it happen using EDGE this morning, and I WAS able to make it happen in CHROME. It is an intermittent problem, so not easy to test. I'll keep trying different browsers for a few days and look for a pattern.
My PC did get a big Windows update last week, that's about when I think I first began to notice it. Can't be 100% sure on when it first happened. I initially blamed myself, and then my mouse batteries. No other PC updates that I'm aware of.

After some experimenting, it seems that when I make a single left click with my mouse, sometimes my computer and/or DailyChess takes that as a double click. I've tried changing browser and changing mice but still it happens occasionally and I don't understand why. If nobody else is reporting this problem, please accept my apologies for probably wasting your time.
