  Well, from what I can gather from recent news is that if you don't update to Windows 8.1 by a certain time then you will not receive any security updates anymore, so Microsoft appear to be forcing the issue somewhat.

  Hi i have never had a spacebar issue until now when i updated to windows 10 and use Edge. All the posts for this problem are at least 2 years old and still i am unable to find a solution. What can i do?

  I think the only solutions for you roopuk, are to switch to a browser other than Edge or Internet Explorer or, type out a space in notepad, then select it, copy it (CTRL + C), then, when you need a space in the chat box, instead of pressing the spacebar, press CTRL + V.
  
  A little bit clunky, but it works.

  So is WGT going to be working on a solution to this issue with Win10 and Edge, or is it an item that Microsoft needs to resolve. I just got a new computer and have the same issue with the space bar... doesn't bother me too much, however to players I play with complain  xD

  It affects the latest maxthon as well (as at Feb 2016). I believe maxthon is chrome-based.

  Just FYI.

  According to wikiwotsit, it appears to be based on Internet Explorer.
