Bug: Empty bar at bottom of screen on Android 14 Honor 70 / MagicOS 8.0
After updating Microsoft Edge to version 142.0.3595.66 on Android 14 with MagicOS 8.0 on an Honor 70 smartphone, a permanent empty strip appears at the bottom of the screen when using gesture navigation. This issue was not present in previous versions, such as 141.0.3537.99. Disabling the "Edge-to-edge Everywhere" or "Edge-to-edge Tablet" flags does not resolve the problem. It seems to be related to the new edge-to-edge design introduced in the latest update. Please fix this issue or add an option to disable the bottom padding. Thank you.MS Edge 142.0.3595.65 does not start with anything else but msedge.exe
This is to be considered a critical bug with Microsoft Edge Version 142.0.3595.65, a change in behavior not seen in the prior Version 142.0.3595.53. External integrations with Microsoft Edge browser are broken since Microsoft Edge Version 142.0.3595.65. This latest version is more strict to the actual command on how it gets launched. 1. Open a Command Prompt 2. C:\Users\myuser> PATH=C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft\Edge\Application;%PATH% 3. C:\Users\myuser> msedge -> MS Edge does *NOT* launched 4. C:\Users\myuser> msedge.exe -> MS Edge DOES launch Others have observed the same with this latest version of Microsoft Edge: https://www.reddit.com/r/sysadmin/comments/1or1h9k/msedgeexe_will_not_start_unless_entire_executable/ The command to launch Microsoft Edge MUST be msedge.exe. It cannot be just 'msedge' as it terminates with Exit Status: 13. This causes significant impact to business critical applications that make use of Microsoft Edge.
Custom DNS for Edge mobile
Hi Please visit the link below in Microsoft feedback portal and vote for the option to add custom DNS for Edge mobile. It's a must for every browser. It's very strange why Edge mobile do not have this option yet. https://feedbackportal.microsoft.com/feedback/idea/6ee7ee95-57be-f011-aa44-7c1e5298a4a1
M365 account automatically drops from Edge sync on iPhone (works on iPad)
I'm experiencing a critical sync issue with Microsoft Edge on iOS where my primary M365 account will not remain signed in for sync. The Problem: When I attempt to sync settings, my most important M365 account does not appear in the list of available accounts I can manually "add another account" and successfully authenticate The account briefly appears in the sync settings Within a few minutes, it silently disappears and Edge reverts to a default profile No error messages are shown - it just vanishes What Makes This Unusual: The SAME account works perfectly in Edge on my iPad (same iOS version 18.0.1) The account works fine in other Microsoft apps on the iPhone (Outlook, OneDrive) I am the M365 administrator for this account - there are no restrictions, conditional access policies, or authentication blocks The account does NOT appear in Azure AD sign-in logs when this happens, suggesting it's using iOS authentication broker Troubleshooting Already Attempted: Completely uninstalled and reinstalled Edge multiple times Cleared all browsing data, cookies, and cache Signed out of Apple ID and back in (to reset iOS keychain) Removed iPhone device registration from Azure AD and re-registered Re-authenticated through OneDrive using Passkey (temporarily worked, then reverted) Cleared Safari website data for all Microsoft domains Reset network settings Signed out of all Microsoft apps and signed back in Restarted iPhone multiple times Device Information: iPhone model: iPhone 15 Pro Max iOS version: 26.0.1 Edge version: 142.0.3595.53 iPad (where it WORKS): iOS 26.0.1, same Edge version Expected Behavior: The M365 account should remain signed in for sync, just as it does on my iPad. Actual Behavior: Account drops after a few minutes with no error message, reverting to default profile. This appears to be a device-specific authentication broker issue between Edge and iOS on this particular iPhone. Please investigate why Edge cannot maintain the authentication session on this device when the same account works on my iPad.Suggestions For Edge From My Experience (Microsoft, Please Listen 🤞
What's up, Microsoft Community! 👋 I literally don't remember how long ago it was when I posted asking on how to join the Edge Insider Program, but things have changed for me a little since then, & but my love for tech, & innovation remains, as it always will. So, without further ado, let's jump right into this post, since I have some suggested upgrades & changes I would like to see be made for the pc version of Edge, based on my experience with it in the last several years... And also, the post itself will be divided into 2 categories: Privacy, & Improvements. Instead of typing out the longest novel in recorded history about my relationship with Edge, I will simply sum it up: It's a great browser, & it most certainly rivals Chrome in a number of ways, & despite some of its current flaws, I do enjoy using it. But, there are some things I would like to see changed, which I will lay out for y'all. 👇 PRIVACY: Compared to the likes of Google Chrome, even though Microsoft still does collect a certain amount of data, in order to provide the Microsoft-based services to it's users, I personally tend to consider the privacy situation to be slightly better than Chrome, just not as invasive. Especially, given that there are literally settings you can actually toggle on or off in order to enhance your privacy. And I could have laid out some of the privacy enhancements I would like to see improved within, in a great amount of detail, but I'm not always the best at coming up with the right words to say at the right times. 🙄🤦♂️😂 So, I instead got the opinion of an AI chatbot I use more often, in order to brainstorm ideas for improving Edge's privacy. And you can see my full chat interaction in this recording, courtesy of this publicly accessible Google Drive link: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1HtPXsMtOv8l3GyiNMS1Wg_pnWdXPnN6U/view?usp=sharing (By the way, if any of you tend to agree with these improvements, be sure to like the post, or upvote, if that's even possible. 😉👍) IMPROVEMENTS: 1. In my own personal opinion, having a translator baked right into your browser is WAY better than nothing at all, even if it sucks. But, that leads me to an area where I feel like Microsoft might want to re-think their strategy: The Microsoft Translator is quite frankly, not that good at all compared to Google Translate, or even DeepL Translate- the latter of which I consider to be an "underdog" type of company compared to the bigger players out there, & they pride themselves on their quality translations, even though their list of supported languages is still expanding, as is their business, as we speak. (And I even confirmed this myself by testing the Microsoft Translator out on a few foreign websites I know of, & also by consulting with four different AI chatbots, & they all said that compared to its competition out there, it just isn't cutting the mustard, which is quite embarrassing.) However, I would like to pitch a wild idea to Microsoft: Why not just scrap the built-in translation, for DeepL, while showing them some love & support for their hard work, & commitment? 🤷♂️😏 2. For this part, I decided to combine two of the complaints I have into one, since they BOTH have to do with the appearance within the browser. And I know that this may or may not align with some people out there, but the point I'm highlighting is that this isn't what I prefer. These two complaints I have include: Not having the ability to hide the "Add this page to favorites", AND the "Extensions" buttons from the toolbar, which is right next to the address bar. (And you can see what I mean by viewing the included screenshot.) I do happen to recall that Microsoft used to have the option to hide the extension button itself from the toolbar, but for whatever reason(s), that isn't really a thing as of right now, & I even checked this within the settings, & by making sure that I have the latest browser version, which I do. Still, to say that I'm disappointed would be a gross understatement, to say the least, but I REALLY hope that Microsoft listens to this bit of feedback, & takes the right course of action, here... 🫤🥺🤞🙏 3. By now, I'm sure a good number of you, who happen to be tech-savvy, probably know that Microsoft Edge IS considered to be faster, & more resource efficient compared to Opera, or even Google Chrome, for instance. But, there is 1 browser which I use, & that I genuinely think Microsoft could take some serious inspiration from, & it's Brave. From what I have observed myself, & also going by other data online, there is no doubt about it that Brave is markedly more efficient compared to Edge. And it comes down to how Brave handles privacy within their browser, as a whole, but also from some architectural tweaks to the underlying Chromium code itself that makes Brave, quite frankly, noticeably better than Edge, in this case. (Now, before any of you bother to take up your lighted torches, pitchforks, & prepare to roast me, just hear me out that I'm not actually playing favorites, here. But, I do think there is room for improvement, on this front.) 4. One incredibly useful feature that I absolutely LOVE in modern day web browsers is being able to hover over my tabs, when needed, or in case I ever feel the need to get a quick check while I am multitasking. But, while the functionality within Edge is pretty decent, the accuracy isn't NEARLY as good as compared to what Opera uses, which in my opinion, somehow has the best implementation of this technology, however they pulled this off. (Seriously, folks. I'm not even joshing you, here. Try doing it within with Opera, Opera Air, or even Opera GX, for that matter, & I'm sure you will totally see what I mean.) Now, while I would never in my life, ask for one company to copy another's, or steal a patent, or whatever, this is another area where I think Edge can be improved in, so, I will keep my eyes & ears pealed for future releases down the line, or even if Microsoft DOES end up seeing my post, here. 5. And onto my final complaint- earlier on, I noticed that Edge did have the Secure Network in preview/beta, & while accessing foreign websites, or even watching movies online, it really came in handy for me. But now, it has been removed from the toolbar, & only the toggle for it exists in the settings. So, Microsoft, I hope you guys are working on refining this particular feature, & I hope you plan to bring it back soon. 🤞 Well, with all that being said, I hope this post gets noticed by y'all in the community, & that perhaps, it aligns with what others hope to see in future releases of Edge. If any of you happen to have any questions for me, or need additional details, feel free to drop me a line, or even comment on this post, & I will be happy to get back with you, & fill any of you in. Thanks in advance, everyone! 🙏🙇♂️😊Can't see Copilot icon anymore!
Hey everyone. Today, after updating Microsoft Edge in my Windows 11, I can't see Copilot icon on top right of the window anymore (even in Edge Dev and Edge Can). Also, I can't access Bing Chat over sidebar shortcut that I've created. Why?? Actually, the last version of Edge was greatly working and didn't have any problems. I could completely work with Copilot, even in PDF files; but not anymore. Well, what should I do??😑😭 Thanks for your support.
