Edge Kiosk mode does not respect languages selection
Hi, I start Edge in kiosk mode using options " --edge-kiosk-type=fullscreen --no-first-run" It seems that Edge does not respect language preferences. If I start normal Edge, or InPrivate mode, it applies languages preferences (localized websites respond with right language). If, from same user, I start in Kiosk mode, localized websites respond in English (the OS's languages). Is this a bug? Any way to apply custom language selection? thanksLegacy SameSite Cookie deprecation - Edge version 132
Hi all, Edge version 132 has deprecated the Legacy SameSite Cookie behaviour. Now sites with SameSite=None must also have Secure and use https. This has broken an on-premise application we use that does not use https. The app supports https but the developer wants $10,000 to enable it. I have set a GPO to hold our version of Edge back on 131. I found that current Firefox can still be told to not require Secure when SameSite=none. It would be a pain to move everyone to Firefox though. Is there a way to bypass this in Edge 132+? thanks jEdge always open favorites in new tab is missing
Edge always open favorites in new tab has been removed, even if --enable-features=msFavoritesOpenInNewTabSetting is added to the launch command I don't understand why such a nice feature is hidden, or even not allowed for us to use, I'm disappointed, really disappointed, hurry up and add it back, no matter how you enable this feature I promise, if you add this feature back, there must be a lot of people who will come back to Edge
Vertical tabs mode new tab button should be fixed position at the top of the tab strip
I feel I should start by saying thank you to the Edge UI/UX team. Yous really have made the best browser UI on the market and I really appreciate it. TL;DR version: when in vertical tabs mode, the new tab button should be at the top of the tab strip in a fixed position. I even made a quick mock of what this would look like Vertical tabs mode is best for users that have many tabs open, but for users that have many tabs open, that means the new tab button is almost always located at the bottom of the screen. That is a problem - especially for people trying vertical tabs mode for the first time - because the "cost" or "friction" of clicking the new tab button is much higher compared to what that person is used to. The user has to move the cursor too far and it takes too long to reach the new tab button all the way in the bottom left corner of the screen. It is a very large regression in UX efficiency and I'm very confident this is a big reason why so many users don't stick with vertical tabs. Below is a screenshot where I superimpose vertical tabs mode on top of normal horizontal tabs mode and drew a green arrow line so you can see where the user is used to the new tabs button being compared to the vertical tabs mode position. That is is a massive change and increase in cursor distance. Also, on desktop browsers, the buttons and UI are at the top of the screen. This isn't just muscle memory but also where the users eyes are accustomed to. But in Edge's vertical tabs mode, the new tab button is usually closer to the bottom of the screen, making it an odd outlier of a decades long unofficial "law". Safari has had a fixed position new tab button for many years, so we know this is a good and "safe" thing to do, there's no worries or risks with a fixed position new tab button. And Edge's vertical tabs already do the reverse gravity behaviour that would be needed for this, so this wouldn't be a lot of work!Anyone down for Edge logo options?
So is it me or the new Microsoft Edge log not as fun? You know what would be fun? Options. I would love to see a buried settings options for the type of logo we can have. Hell, I think if they give us the option to swap between the Spartan Logo, Edge logo, and New Edge logo that will be fun. I love options and Windows has always been the better bet for it. Let us have fun with one of the most important apps we use on our computers.Edge Android does not truly install PWA
I believe Edge Android does not truly installs PWA, instead it creates a shortcut on the home screen. If I install PWA from Chrome, the app is added to the App drawer and also shows up in Settings > Apps list. This is not the case when installing via Edge. It only shows up on the home screen and there is a edge logo at the bottom right corner of the app logo. This is not a site specific issue, I have created multiple PWAs that install perfectly on other platforms and browsers except Edge. I even tried the demo from Edge and it also behaves in the same way.
