You may have messages from non-friends and not even know it.

This is how to check to see if you have recieved messages from non-friends using the Android app.

Tap the Messages icon in the upper left.
Tap the 3 horizontal lines in upper left. (If you don't have them, tap the gear/settings in upper right).
Tap on Message Requests
There are 2 headings: People you may know and Spam.
People you may know are non-friends who are in the same group as you. The Spam are from non-friends with no connection but are allowed based on your security settings.

Earlier I showed how to clear your browser cache for Edge.
This will clear up issues you may have with browsing webpages. Sometimes they load slowly or incorrectly, this can fix those issues.
How to clear your browser cache for FireFox.
Open Firefox
In the upper right, click on the 3 horizontal lines
In the menu that drops down, click on Settings near the bottom
On the Settings Page, on the left side, click on Privacy And Security
On the right side, scroll down to History
by default, Firefox will remember your history.
Click on the Clear History button
In the dialog box that opens, click the dropdown for Time range and set it to Everything
Then select all the check boxes.
Then click on OK, this dialog box will close when its done clearing your history.
I recommend closing Firefox and re-opening

Sometimes when browsing the web, some pages may not display properly or may take a long time to load. A simple fix is to clear your browser cache. Here is a video and the steps one should take to clean up the Edge browser cache
Open the Edge Browser
In the upper right corner, click on the 3 dots
In the menu that appears, scroll down to Settings
A new tab will open
On the left, select Privacy, Search, and Services
On the right, scroll down to Clear Browsing Data
There is a button to the right of Clear browsing data now called, Choose what to clear, click on it
A dialog box will appear.
From here, you can clear out Internet Explorer cache also by clicking on the Clear browsing data for Internet Explorer Mode
(Edge has a built in Internet Explorer mode, this is not the same as the stand alone Internet Explorer browser that needs to be cleaned separately)
Doing so will bring up Internet Explorer Options
On this dialog box, uncheck the first check box - Preserve Favorites website data.
Check all the other boxes
Click on the Delete button at the bottom. This will clear your Internet Explorer mode in Edge
Now click on the Choose what to clear box again
Under Time Range, click the drop down and select All Time
Below that are several check boxes, check all of them
Then click the button on the bottom called Clear Now
Close and re-open Edge
Now you have a fresh Edge to surf with.
This is something you may want to do on a regular basis. The more you surf, the more often you should do this.
I will do videos and walk throughs for Firefox and Chrome at a later time.
