[Wayland] PWAs no longer appear as separate app windows — all group under main Edge icon
Hi, Since around 2025-09-07 to 2025-09-10, I’ve noticed that on GNOME (Wayland) all installed PWAs (even across different profiles) now appear grouped under the main Edge browser icon in the GNOME Shell dash/taskbar. Previously, each PWA would open in its own window group with its own icon. This is still the behavior in Chromium/Brave/Chrome, and can be restored there by editing the PWA’s .desktop file to set: StartupWMClass=<same value as Icon> However, Edge now seems to ignore StartupWMClass completely on Wayland, breaking workspace separation and making task switching hard. Environment: Ubuntu 25.04 GNOME 48.0 / Mutter (Wayland) Kernel 6.14.0-29 Intel Iris Xe GPU Edge (latest stable, observed post 2025-09-13) Repro steps: Install any PWA (e.g. Outlook, Teams, Spotify) from Edge Launch it (from any profile) Observe that it appears grouped under the main Edge browser icon Expected: PWA shows under its own icon and window group like in Chromium-based browsers Actual: All PWAs are bundled into the main Edge window group Editing StartupWMClass in the .desktop file no longer helps This regression makes PWAs much harder to manage on Wayland. Please route to the Linux/Wayland team if possible. Thanks!Mica issues again (title bar + context menus)
Weird bug again - in both Stable/Dev the title bar mica effects are not working, but the dropdown & context menu (three dot settings) is. In Canary, the title bar mica effect *is* working, but the dropdown/context menu is not (solid white). I reported via feedback as well. Canary: Dev/Stable:
[MS Edge Android] UI Glitch: Suggestions Misaligned in Bottom Search Bar Mode
Hi everyone! I'm experiencing a strange issue with the search suggestions when using bottom bar mode. In Microsoft Edge, there's a blank space between the input bar and the suggestions above it, as shown in the attached image (see the red line). Is anyone else seeing this bug? Any idea how to fix it? Thanks in advance
Unable to load workspaces
I have never been able to use Edge Workspaces on my main personal profile. I have already performed the following troubleshooting steps: Logged out and back in with my profile Downloaded Edge Canary and signed in there, but it doesn’t work on Canary either Cleared cache and cookies Reset Edge Resynced Reset sync data Checked that there is no “workspaces” folder in OneDrive I think the issue is clearly related to my account, because on my work account it all works perfectly. I am attaching the error log. How can I resolve this, if there is no way to reach assistance for personal free users? Thank you.
How to disable confirmation pop-up in Edge Browser when opening many tabs
I have bookmarks arranged in multiple folders, varying from 10 to 500 or more links per folder. Whenever I try to click on the bookmark folder to open all of them at once, I always get this Pop-up, which is very annoying to me (I was ignoring that pop-up for more than a year). Is there any built-in setting to disable or increase the limit? P.S: FYI, I am on a very high-end laptop(M4 pro with increased RAM & SSD) and due to my use case, I have to regularly, almost every day open many links
Feature Request: Role-Based Separation in Microsoft Edge
Description: As a professional who wears multiple hats — Operations, Architecture, Courseware, etc. — I rely heavily on Microsoft Edge to organize my digital workspace. While Edge Profiles offer some separation, they fall short when it comes to true contextual isolation. Signing into multiple profiles with the same Microsoft account causes bookmarks, extensions, and settings to merge, defeating the purpose of separation and creating privacy and productivity issues. Proposal: Introduce a “Roles” feature within a single Edge identity that allows users to create and switch between distinct work contexts without data bleed. Each role would have: Isolated bookmarks, tab groups, and workspace layouts Optional shared elements like passwords, extensions, and history A simple checkbox interface to control what syncs across roles Role-specific visibility for presentations or shared environments (e.g., hiding personal bookmarks during a Teams meeting) Benefits: Enables professionals to maintain clean separation between responsibilities Reduces risk of accidental data exposure in meetings or shared devices Improves productivity by allowing seamless context switching Minimizes time spent managing profiles and recovering from sync mishaps Use Case Example: Operations role: synced with work account, full access to enterprise tools Architecture role: isolated bookmarks and tabs for design tools Courseware role: focused on LMS platforms and training resources This feature would be a game-changer for professionals who need role-based organization without the overhead and risk of managing multiple profiles.Chrome and Edge flickering/lagging on second monitor (MSI GE75, RTX 2070) - Firefox works fine
Hello. I have an issue with my MSI GE75 laptop running Windows 11 with an RTX 2070. When I use a second monitor Dell connected via HDMI, content inside Microsoft Edge and Google Chrome starts flickering and lagging. Firefox works fine on the same setup. The laptop is MSI GE75 with RTX 2070 and Intel iGPU. The second monitor is a Dell. Browsers affected are Edge and Chrome. Browser not affected is Firefox. I set Edge and Chrome to run on the RTX 2070 in Windows graphics settings. All drivers are updated. All settings are on maximum. The issue is flickering and micro freezes while scrolling or playing videos on the second monitor. This does not happen on the main laptop display. I already tried switching Edge and Chrome to High performance GPU RTX 2070 in Windows settings with no effect. I updated NVIDIA and Intel drivers with no effect. I disabled hardware acceleration in Edge and Chrome which reduces the issue but performance drops. I set both monitors to the same refresh rate 60 Hz but the problem persists. Since the problem only happens with Chromium based browsers and only on the second monitor, I suspect it could be related to how Microsoft rendering pipeline interacts with Chromium hardware acceleration. Firefox which uses a different rendering backend works fine. My questions are: Why does this only happen with Chromium based browsers but not Firefox? Is this related to how Windows and Chromium handle GPU acceleration on a second monitor? Is there a known fix or workaround to make Edge and Chrome work properly on the second monitor? Thank you in advance for any advice.Normal themes on High Contrast mode on Edge 138+
Hello. How do I disable the high contrast theme in Edge 138+? but not disable on Windows 10/11. I currently have the official build 140. I managed to disable high contrast for websites, but the Edge GUI is still completely white and gray. Before build 138, it was possible to change the theme, but since build 138, it's not possible? Is this Google's or Microsoft's idea? and how to fix it? because I want to install classic theme from Edge/Chrome store.
