Default Can't Highlight Text Anymore

I use to be able to highlight text and then right click it to conduct searches; have this feature been turned off, and if so any way to turn it back on?

It was very helpful...saved a bunch of typing and time.

Thank you

Works okay for me with Firefox. JT may need to know what browser you're using.

This function is actually a browser function and not from CorvetteForum. Therefore, CorvetteForum has no control over this feature.

As Jim noted above, and as I can confirm, the feature works in FireFox and also IE 10 as shown in my attachment.

You might try reviewing this article to manage your search providers. Not sure if you still get the Search in Bing or not, or if you want Google.

You'll probably find better help with Microsoft's support since this is a Microsoft issue and not related to CorvetteForum.

Hmmmm, funny only place I can't do it is here so I don't believe it is a system problem. But now I at least know that others still can do it...
