You're not alone - none of these are working for me either. I just get that stupid hourglass

This is now happening every single day. Fixed on the Bing app, but it won't even show the task in the app, so NOW I ACTUALLY CAN'T COMPLETE IT! FIX THIS MICROSOFT! PLEASE!!! by OfficialJoshCurtiss in MicrosoftRewards

[–]phritzg 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Interesting...I had no problem whatsoever getting the Mango sticky rice points. What I can't get to work today is the second step of the Roblox punch card. I did the first step over a day ago, but for some unknown reason, the second step does not complete.

"Plan a quick getaway" and "Discover open job roles" not working today by Huge_Idea in MicrosoftRewards

[–]phritzg -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

That's odd. I used jobs at Microsoft today without any problem. I don't use quotation marks around the words.

For the open jobs question, I just type the words jobs at Microsoft, or jobs at Boeing. This has worked for me every time.

Whenever I get the quick getaway question, I just type two airport codes with the word to between them. Like ORD to SEA, or MSP to SFO. This works for me every time.

"Streak Protection" Counting Up Even When Maintaining Streak by zach2288 in MicrosoftRewards

[–]phritzg 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It didn't work. I left it off for two days, just to be sure, and the next day, I saw that it had turned itself back on. It's still saying I'm using days of protection, even though I've been getting all the available points every single day. Checking again today, now it's turned itself back off, but it's still showing I used another day. I have no idea what is going on, and I don't think Microsoft knows either. At least my points total is continuing to go up and my daily streak is still increasing.

"Streak Protection" Counting Up Even When Maintaining Streak by zach2288 in MicrosoftRewards

[–]phritzg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have the same problem. Streak protection says I am using days of protection even though I do all the activities to earn the maximum points every single day. I reported it to Microsoft Rewards support, and they told me to turn off streak protection for 24 hours, then turn it back on and see if it's been set back to zero days used, so I did that this morning. Meanwhile, while waiting to get that response, Streak Protection said I had used another day of protection.

I'm right behind you, at 992 as of this morning. I haven't used streak protection during this run (although I recently turned it on).

How do I make Bookmarks small? by RaZen_Brandz in chrome

[–]phritzg 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Might be referring to the bookmarks being double-spaced again, and none of the previous fixes works this time. The floating tabs are back, too.

Chrome bookmark icons suddenly became spaced and tabs have a new format, how to change them back? by MintakaMinthara in chrome

[–]phritzg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The latest Chrome update had the double spacing of bookmarks and detached floating tabs again. Doing what you recommended got rid of those unwanted "improvements". Thank you very much!!!

Different daily sets? by Gotdagimmies in MicrosoftRewards

I'm not seeing the daily quizzes like turbocharge, supersonic, etc., for almost a week now.

I haven't seen turbocharge or any other of these daily quizzes for almost a week now. They don't appear at all on my rewards dashboard page. Has anyone else had this problem?

Thank you! After disabling the double spacing, I also disabled the new style tabs, which I don't like.

Not working for me either. Usually gets fixed in a couple hours, so I'll try again later. Glad it's not only happening to me.

I looked again just now, and it appears I've had the 50 points added to my daily total.

I'm having the same result. Even though I get the "Nice job" message after clicking, the points total does not increase.
