It just started with the upgrade to Windows 11. Every time I click on Certitude or Geocheck on a puzzle page, the site pops up a message: Hey wait. You're about to leave Geocaching.com. You then must select OK to get to the other site. Seems like a new extra step. Already tried all the suggestions on the web to block this in Chrome, but nothing works. Anyone have any other suggestions?

This is the reason

Thanks for the feedback. It looks like we have to accept this "new & improved" change!

There is:
https://www.geocaching.com/geocache/GC9FCAT_zahradkarska-osada-boretin

and there is not:

https://www.geocaching.com/seek/cache_details.aspx?wp=GC9FCAT&title=zahradkarska-osada-boretin

So probably find a way to open listings on links of the second type.

My new(ish) laptop keeps prompting me to "upgrade" to W11. I'm just counting down the time until the warranty runs out, then I'm swapping out the drive and putting linux on this puppy.

 

Okay, I'll go back in my box now.

This isn't a Windows 11 issue, HQ have disabled the "open in a new tab" functionality on links embedded in images and instead replaced it with a Danger! Warning! message. It'll do the same thing in any other browser, even Linux ones.

Shhh, don't disrupt my fantasy narrative with annoying things like facts!
