Microchip forcing MPLAB X?
« on: February 06, 2012, 03:16:32 pm »
I went to try and download MPLAB 8.83 and it seems Microchip killed the links and are gently forcing people to download mplab x.

anyone else have the same problem?

I found the issue. 

It works in internet explorer just fine.  I was using google chrome and I am pretty sure there were some parsing errors.

I also heard back from the FAE, that the website is in the process of being updated so there might be some broken links here and there.

Thanks 8086 for checking that out.

Microchip does a poor job of having their website work properly on all browsers.  Just try to use their forums with FireFox.
