  I can’t insert my image. It’s already uploaded, but everytime I click on “insert image” this stupid tab opens: https://www.avira.com/en/antivirus-protection-new-threats?x-a-source=AME&x-a-utoken=858b9f3c7c62489fb330eb60d0ced80a858b9f3c&x-a-medium=2301&x-a-version=3046&x-a-item=Somoto – I was stupid enough to install avira’s add on but then I disabled it.
  Because of this, I removed it completely. But the problem still stays.

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  There has been a change to the post editor interface at https://wordpress.com/post/ and Staff are recommending that we bypass the New Dash in favor of posting directly on our sites at Dashboard > Posts > Add New. https://en.forums.wordpress.com/topic/where-did-the-add-media-button-go?replies=2#post-1927520

  For image uploading please note the Staff response here https://en.forums.wordpress.com/topic/why-is-there-now-only-small-pictures-in-the-post-can-i-get-them-big-again?replies=3#post-1927594

  There will be further new iterations of the post editor at https://wordpress.com/post/ and that is why the advice is to go to Dashboard > Post > Add New

  For inserting images see http://en.support.wordpress.com/images/adding-images-to-posts-or-pages/

  For image editing see here http://en.support.wordpress.com/images/image-editing/

  If you are not running a browser or version of it found here http://browsehappy.com please upgrade.

  But this new dash does not suggest me my already used “tags”…Is this still a work in progress?

  And it keeps happening the same. I guess it’s something related to the stupid things Avira does. I’m going to ask in their forums because I’ve noticed the tab opened with another website as well when I was trying to download something.
