"fake" is added my logo.png address when I try to upload it. ie: C:\logos\logopicture.png becomes
C:\fakepath\logopicture.png. Tried moving the file, checking permissions, changing it to a jpeg. First one I uploaded worked fine but this new picture won't. Opens ok in other programs

Seems to be related to an HTML5 security spec that prevents your local file path from being included in file uploads to remote sites. If you google "fakepath" you'll get a ton of hits going back more than 8 years. Some articles claim that the problem is on the remote side, in the code the site is using to provide the upload function. Others claim to provide workarounds by modifying your browser settings. And the behavior seems to vary from browser to browser. I found one article claiming that adding the site's URL to the Trusted Sites list in Internet Explorer fixes the problem, possibly in combination with disabling the Include local directory path when uploading files in IE's Security Settings. I didn't find specific workarounds for other browsers, mostly because there were so many search results and you didn't mention which browser you were using. But hopefully this gives you a starting point from which to find a solution that works for you. I work almost exclusively in Google Chrome (sometimes Firefox) and I've never had any issues uploading images to our Okta tenant, so take that for what it's worth. Good luck, and feel free to post your solution back here so that others may benefit from your knowledge.
