Happy Diwali!
Diwali (or Deepavali, the "festival of lights") is an ancient Hindu festival celebrated in autumn, In India, every year. Diwali is the biggest and the brightest festival in India. The festival spiritually signifies the victory of light over darkness.

Before Diwali night, people clean, renovate and decorate their homes and offices. On Diwali night, Hindus dress up in new clothes or their best outfit, light up diyas (lamps and candles) inside and outside their home, participate in family puja (prayers) typically to Lakshmi – the goddess of wealth and prosperity. After puja, fireworks follow then a family feast including mithai (sweets), and an exchange of gifts between family members and close
friends. Diwali also marks a major shopping period in nations where it is celebrated.
We also put some electric lights on our houses, buildings to celebrate it. I've made some lights available at the top of the Forum to symbolize them. Enjoy!
PS.
1. Click on photo to see them opening in a nice layer.

I see. i did not think in that direction. I did book my copy of Windows 10 but the update has not yet arrived for my laptop, so not using Edge that frequently.Robert Sample wrote:Edge is the new Microsoft browser replacing Internet Explorer in Windows 10.

When I tell somebody to RTFM or STFW I usually have the page open in another tab/window of my browser,
so that I am sure that the information requested can be reached with a very small effort

It should look like as shown in the attached picture below, on the top of every page. Portal page does not show them up but I'll ignore that for the time being:

That's great but I think you should update the explorer you are using. IE7 is out of support now, if I'm not mistaken.Pathi Kumaran wrote:Happy Diwali!
