I need to be able to click on the 3 horizontal bars scroll to settings (gear Icon) and see on the left and find the heading content and uncheck Pop-ups. and then see the security heading and then be able to continue my manual trusted site but I do not see the gear Icon there is an options icon but not gear Help!

Hi,

When you see 'Options' - the icon left of 'Options' : that's a cog wheel ....

Just click on 'Options' and then on the left you'll see 'Privacy & Seurity'.

To uncheck pop-ups you'll need to scroll down to 'Permissions'.

'Hope this helps ....
