It seems that you're using an outdated browser. Some things may not work as they should (or don't work at all).
We suggest you upgrade newer and better browser like: Chrome, Firefox, Internet Explorer or Opera

stg83: Microsoft won't remove IE but they have another default browser as well called Spartan (or Edge) in Windows 10, which atleast is an improvement security and performance wise.
eh... I'll with Chrome at this point haha.

Everyone: Hey, let's blame the problem on IE because that's what we learnt in kindergarten!
Sorry to break the bubble for you, folks. I just opened GOG.com on IE11 on Windows (should not be not dramatically different from what is in the screenshot), and oh, take a look!

Its in the middle

As for those people who are repeating this stuff they said since kindergarten, I have to step in here and say that IE11 is the greatest success in IE history. I actually used it more than my Chrome, instead of replacing it with Chrome like I did with IEs before it. I won't say its better than Chrome, but I won't say that IE11 is crap just because a version from ages ago was crap.

As for how to solve the OP's problem, I don't know myself. What did you try?

PookaMustard: Its in the middle
Mine's in the middle 90 to 95% of the time to. It just happens occasionally where it's off like this. The only other thing off center I've noticed was once I couldn't read the gift codes on the My Orders screen for gift purchases because it was shifted to the right as well. That hasn't happened since, but then again, I don't often go to that page.

The gog home page, on the other hand, I go to quite often, so that's where I see it most often. But I could come here 20 more times today and it will probably be in the middle, just right. Then tomorrow, or the day after, I'll come here and once again it will be shifted to the right. Funny thing is, I swear it appears to be moving further right every time it happens.... lol. Probably just my imagination though.

I've no problem checking the front page on IE like every day to see what the heck's going on. So you haven't tried anything to see what is wrong or what is causing this 'rightward shift'.

No. It does appear to be IE related, as IIRC one other poster in my last thread reported seeing it too, and was using IE. I'm using IE 11, same as you. But because it's no big deal since it usually "fixes itself" I haven't tried anything. I just find it curious more than anything else. If this is the worst thing I have to deal with using IE, then I'm good.

Sorry, that just not true. I have been using M$ products since back in MS-DOS days, and been very happy with them. Internet Explorer stopped being a functioning tool at around version 7. Since then (and since Gates left really), every M$ product has been successively worse in my opinion, Vista, Win8.x (Win 7 was a marginally better), Office since they introduced ribbons, Hotmail when it changed to outlook.com was a real fuckup, and the recent "improvements" to it has made it unusable. Now in fairness, I haven't used IE11, and I have no intention of using. They have, product by product driven me away from using their products. I even have a windows phone, half the time the browser freezes, the other half the time it doesn't display properly etc. I just don't have these issues with Firefox. You have to remember, once the damage is done, its hard to get people back on board.

That is strange, I never noticed it before, but it looks like I'll switch to IE11 in the meantime just to see if this problem happen to me. Yes, if that's the worst thing you have to deal with using IE, it certainly is better than what all the people love to talk about on IE. It feels a bit fun.

grimwerk: No, we're deeply spiritual people. It's a form of penance. Like self-flagellation, or a hair shirt.

I'd explain in greater detail, but I can't see the right hand side of my screen.
I think that they didn't remove IE 11, the last browser which supports Silverlight 5, because they already published in their life-cycle they would support Silverlight 5 until 10/12/2021.

So, while everyone has made a shift to HTML5/CSS3/JavaScript, Silverlight is getting nothing more than support attention and because Microsoft made the shift among everyone else (with their new browser) including Google who dropped NPAPI support altogether, Microsoft still makes a browser available that will run Silverlight applications.

Feel free to correct me if I'm wrong. :)

I only use IE at work because I rely on several .gov sites that only "function" at all on IE.

I use the word "function" loosely, since they still mostly suck. But they frequently don't work at all on other browsers.

Check your browser zoom settings, that's what it looks like to me at least :-)

Stop using IE. IE is the most nonstandard browser available and a gaping conduit for malware.

Reminds me when there were internet worms and viruses so bad it shut down half the businesses (including trains) and Microsoft began to take security more seriously for their OSes.
Its mesmerizing isn't it? :)
