For some weeks ChatGPT doesn’t do anything when I type a message and press Enter or click on the submit button. My message just disappears. The error occured no matter the selected model.

Yesterday I noticed that somehow ChatGPT 3.5 is working again. But ChatGPT 4 and ChatGPT Plugins still do not work.

I already tried different browsers, restart browser/computer, delete cache and cookies and check for browser/system updates.

Has anyone an idea how I could fix this?

Thank you in advance!

yes but if you spam the button, you get “You’ve reached your GPT-4o limit.”  
This needs to be fixed

I removed KB5039211 security update, and everything works again. I’m not 100% sure if the update is to blame, but it’s a strange coincidence.

I started recently having this problem, but if I simply refresh the browser the issue goes away.

With that said, it is extremely annoying to constantly have to refresh my browser when this bug decides to surface.

I am having the same issues. The chat works only after refreshing the browser; sometimes, it takes multiple refreshes. After refreshing the browser, I also noticed that the chat doesn’t remember the prior chat from the same thread. It’s like its memory is completely wiped.

I just upgraded, and now nothing works. When I enter some text and press return, nothing happens—it just hangs.

Andy help, much appreciated
