The Question Mark bug. I don't like it.

BrycedTea

We have just released an update that should fix the issue with question marks appearing on Microsoft Edge. Try reloading the projects and let us know if the problem persists.

Wow, it works like a charm on my device-thank you so much for the update, @BrycedTea and team! I can't thank you enough

This bug is reproducible by 1.Open (or create) a project in Microsoft Edge. 2. Click on “Surprise” in the “Choose a Sprite” tab. 3. You see a square with a square with a question mark with some probability. (If you can't reproduce the bug, click “Surprise” over and over!)

I don't use Microsoft Edge; I am on Google Chrome.

Issue is unfortunately not only in Edge as I checked Firefox and I found the issue there as well

It's on pretty much all 3 main browsers.

I remember when I first encountered the question mark bug. I thought my account was hacked at first, but I never typed my password anywhere. I then assumed it was some kind of bug. Whenever I loaded one of my projects, some of my backdrop and sprite costumes would turn to a question mark. I thought there was no way to fix it, so I just played some Roblox and Grounded.

Then, I searched up the bug and found a comment saying that you can fix it by just re-making the costumes and backdrops. Ever since, the question mark bug NEVER came again.

Just happened to me, 6 months of work destroyed. I'm quitting scratch unless this gets fixed.

I've checked their GitHub repository and I'm glad that they've noticed the bug, though. As a user of Microsoft Edge and not being able to install other browsers (don't ask-I have reasons for this), this renders Scratch unusable for almost half the time that I'm making projects.

Hopefully it is prioritized and is an easy fix so I and many other Scratchers can start using the editor normally again.

I thought the ST fixed the bug. Are you using an old version of your browser?

It is resolved.
