Moves entered without clicking 'PLAY'

Mistertoad

I often place tiles on the board, trying combinations of letters. However, if I leave the board for a while I come back to find that the word has been entered without me having pressed 'PLAY'.

If I have left the tiles ENT (as a possible word ending) adjoining the a word which has already been played, for example STAG, then the software naturally ignores the combination STAGENT. I come back to find it has left the word STAGE - as if this was my intended play!

This is now the second game from which my play has gone downhill because of this. Has my Windows 10 been changed int Windows AI?!

@mistertoad Wow. Serious Stuff! How about not leaving?

@mistertoad That seems very unlikely, we will check in any case.

Mistertoad

@Whistle1 - I never thought of that! You are thinking in terms of Superglue perhaps?

@Lexulous - Thanks. It hasn't happened since anyway. I probably just hit 'Play' by accident.

It sounds like you don't have "Ask before submitting moves" activated in Settings but should. I discovered this only recently. Also, you know that hitting return does the same as hitting the Play button, right?

That's great, thanks Roy. I altered my settings like you said.
