    And yes, they both open the same exact file browser.

    We have one other user this happens to now and then, but it's on firefox for him. I think he usually fixes it after a restart and I believe one time he had a browser addon causing the problem.

    Accorsing to our forum software it is flash that allows for multiple uploads. Maybe they have done something different in a newer version than we are running to enable multi uploads to work in non flash environments.

    Reading further into it, the old non-flash uploader was upgraded to look like the flash uploader. Also, chrome and firefox are phasing out flash. This means that we need to try something different. There is an html 5 uploader I will try.

    I am assuming that this bug is fixed in the newest version of the forum software, but i dont usually upgrade until i have to because I get flooded with complaints about stuff that has changed everytime I do an upgrade (which is about once a year).

    Anyway, I will try to patch it.

    You don't have to go through a headache for little old me. I can live with 1 if I have to. I did read that adobe was going to quit support for flash in 2020.

    Old laptop Windows 7 I was always able to select multiple pics, using Chrome, new laptop using Chrome Windows 10 only one pic at a time.
    I will fire up the old laptop later and see what it does

    I assume that you are on windows. If it's affecting you now it will be affecting others soon. I would rather get ahead of it.

    No, everyone is. Giant files take a ton of space and are often too big to view, break the frames, etc.

    And this is from my phone.
    Only allows one file at a time and I get the exact same pop-up window to open file browser.

    Make sure you have the flash uploader enabled.
