Address bar broken in Edge 95?
Hi there! I just received Edge Dev 95.0.1011.1 (I was away last week), and my, uhh, Enter button isn't working in the address bar! I can type things into the address bar, but pressing Enter does not...

Hey there rensa_co, thanks for the report!
Will you visit edge://settings/search and confirm what search engine is set to be used in your address bar? You might find something like '-------' listed there, if so can you try setting your preferred search engine and see if pressing Enter to search works for you after changing that setting?

Thanks Alexandra! Yup, I'm seeing '--------' in that field. I can't change it, though: an icon next to it says that this setting is managed by my organization. This wasn't the case before this week, though!

rensa_co Oh! One more thing!
Did you see this dialog popup at any time before this happened? Or were you asked to update your default search engine recently in some other way?
Thanks!
- rensa_coSep 22, 2021Copper ContributorMy device is usually managed by my organisation, just not this setting! I haven't seen a dialog like that, though 😊
- rensa_coSep 22, 2021Copper ContributorFunnily enough, this was fixed when my browser updated to 95.0.1020.0 this morning. The setting is still marked as locked by my organisation, but it's now locked to "Google (default)" rather than "-------". So I can search again 😊
Thanks very much for your help, Alexandra!
- Alexandra-RSep 21, 2021Former EmployeeThanks for confirming! Is your device normally managed by your organization and just this setting is new?
