Password protection for Profiles
Feature Request: It would be good if the profiles were password protected, means while switching profiles, edge should prompt for a password for selected profiles(as per the need of user), what do you think Please let me know? Please do upvote in the Feedback Hub--https://aka.ms/AA8ul3n if you like this idea. Thank you:)DeletedJan 22, 202530KViews27likes24CommentsShow profile name
I use many profiles - current count is 21 - and the profile picture in the top right corner does not really give me the best idea about which profile a window belong to. It would be nice if I could show the profile name next to the profile picture - so it would look something like the InPrivate browsing (where it says "InPrivate"): Update 2020-02-07: When you open an InPrivate browser session, the name could be shown as: "InPrivate: <profile name>" It should be an global option to show or not show profile name.ahl2ndcJan 22, 2025Iron Contributor3.2KViews2likes9CommentsFavorite Bars in Workspaces changed since this morning
Hi everyone! Since yesterday, all my Workspaces had their own favorite bars. When I reopened Edge this morning, I was shocked at first, because I thought my favorites had all disappeared. But it turns out they are now hidden under a folder on the left of the Favorites Bar, making it annoying and cumbersome to access them and the rest of the Favorites bar is now shared among Workspaces. I don't know if I accidentally changed an option but I couldn't find a way to revert it back to how it was. I also couldn't find any information on this being a new feature that was introduced yesterday. If it is, I really don't like it because I don't want to see my work related tabs when I am in my free time workspace and clicking an extra folder each time I want to access a workspace is really cumbersome. Has anyone else noticed this change? I really hope it is an option. 😅nullbonJan 22, 2025Brass Contributor1KViews8likes18CommentsCanary 133.0.3061.0 unstable(mouse pointer vanish, send feedback hard crash)
Mouse pointer frequently disappears from windows(multiple sites). Clicking Help & Feedback->Send Feedback crashes browser and generates two errors in edge://crashes. Since I can't submit feedback, reporting it here.NXTwoThouJan 21, 2025Iron Contributor134Views0likes5CommentsHardware acceleration and menu

I ran into a persistent "resolving host" issue on one of my computers this weekend and worked my way through the usual resolution steps (W10 DNS flush (ipconfig /flushdns), browser DNS flush and so on) in order to clean up the various DNS caches and start with a clean slate. It does not appear that Edge DNS flush (edge://net-internals/#dns, similar to chrome://net-internals/#dns or opera://net-internals/#dns) is operative. The "Clear host cache" button shows up but doesn't seem to be functioning: I don't know if this is a bug or a feature, but it is a difference from other Chromium-based browsers I've had the occasion to use.tomscharbachJan 21, 2025Bronze Contributor330KViews1like13CommentsEdge Disk Cache Size Not Effective in Kiosk Mode or Incognito Session for High-Resolution Media
I'm developing a public-facing web application that serves high-resolution photos and videos, sometimes exceeding 80MB in size. The application runs in kiosk mode, which essentially opens it in an incognito session with new tab and window functionalities disabled. When rendering these large media files, the browser continually downloads them, resulting in excessive data consumption. To mitigate this, I attempted to adjust the disk cache size using the command: microsoft-edge --disk-cache-size=900000000 --incognito However, I noticed that this setting only seems to work in the normal browsing mode, and it doesn't have any effect when the browser is opened in kiosk mode or incognito. I'm seeking advice on how to effectively manage disk cache size in Edge when running a web application in kiosk mode or private session. Any insights or alternative approaches to optimize resource consumption would be greatly appreciated.AlexAung2024Jan 21, 2025Copper Contributor356Views1like2Comments- Reprobus RJan 20, 2025Brass Contributor21Views0likes0Comments
Feature Requests: Keyboard Shortcut to hide/show vertical tab bar
I'm loving the vertical tab bar natively, but just have a few simple feature requests that would make it that much nicer for a power user: 1) Provide a keyboard shortcut to collapse and expand the vertical tab bar. I love the vertical tab bar for allowing for titles to be visible even when you have a decent number of tabs, but it does take up a lot of horizontal space, so I am often switching between it being and expanded and collapsed. A keyboard shortcut (something that requires only left hand) would make this so great. 2) Remove the 'x' from each tab unless the pointer is hovering over it. The 'x's on every tab just takes away space for showing more of the tab titles.charlescharlesJan 17, 2025Brass Contributor8.1KViews30likes16Comments
