@Kirk Unfortunately the suggestion forum does not allow me to post a reply to a topic I started. So I'm forced to start a new one. This probably something to look into it. I now I see my issue with the code formatting. In forums there's two ways to add a reply: Use Add Reply button at the bottom of the post which opens a new window Use the Quick Reply at bottom The add reply lacks code formatting while the quick reply has formatting. I guess I hadn't noticed it, because I never use the "Quick Reply" -- As my answers are well-tested and never quick replies :)

Hi Chad, Regarding being able to reply to messages in the Suggestion Box, I just corrected the security configuration so you can now reply. It was a configuration error, nothing more. For code in replies when you use the Reply link at the bottom of the thread or the reply link on a thread message, I think you can still format code. Let me try it and see. :) Get-Service wuauserv \| Stop-Service If this works then all you need to do in the reply view you use is surround your code block with [ code ] and [ /code ] (without the added spaces).

Yup, that worked. Simply manually enter the [ code ] and [ /code ] tags around your code and you should end up with a code block in your replies. :)

Thanks that's a good workaround--if possible I would suggest adding the "Code" button to "Add Reply"
