After fighting with a new HP printer/scanner and finally getting it to work, I can no longer use IE (which won't "display any pages" or WatchGuard, my VPN client.
Chrome works fine and so does my Outlook email program. I'm using a Windows 8.1 Dell laptop. Can you suggest what I may have done to trigger this outcome? I hate to go through the restore point route which will force me to reload several programs. Would an upgrade to Windows 10 offer a solution?
Thanks in advance!

As this is dedicated Windows 10 forum, I think the general opinion would be “Give it a go!”
But why bother with IE if the alternatives work for you!

davehc and Wolfie,
Thanks for your suggestion. Simply upgrading to Windows 10 resolved all problems with the two programs involved.
