I  read an article on MSN news and I want to share it on FaceBook. I get this error message and I have no idea what it means. I have shared from MSN for years and now get this:

App Not Setup: This app is still in development mode, and you don't have access to it. Switch to a registered test user or ask an app admin for permission.

Now how do I resolve this?

Thank you.

Your computer has been restarted since the problem began?

I just shared an article with Edge, Chrome and Firefox, so the problem isn't affecting everyone.

Try clearing the Chrome cache. [Ctrl+Alt+Del] > clear cached images and files.

If you're running an ad blocker, try disabling it.

If running third-party antivirus or other security program(s) see if disabling them affects the situation.

    I have the same problem.  Google doesn't have any answer.
