bigboymoo HotCakeX - So we heard back from the partner team. Installation of the Chrome theming extension will be supported starting Edge 81 (behind a flag). At the same time, they have started work on built-in theming options in Edge but that will take some time to concretize the plans.

Thank you, that's awesome!
would you please mention which flag I need to enable to be able to use theme extensions?
I've been on version 81 (canary) for 3 weeks now and can't find an appropriate flag that fits the description

  Hi HotCakeX, can you check this flag out 'msAllowThemeInstallationFromChromeStore' and let me know if it works?

    Hi,
    sorry but I can't seem to find that flag
    
    Or maybe you meant to add it to the Target of Edge shortcut like this?
    "--msAllowThemeInstallationFromChromeStore"
    
    i also tried that but Themes from Chrome webs store still wouldn't install.
