Alt + Tab experience can now be turned off from the browser using this newly added flag
This flag that was just added today to Edge Version 89.0.736.0 (Official build) canary (64-bit)
edge://flags/#edge-window-tab-manager
can disable Alt + Tab experience
the description says:
"Allows Windows to show open Microsoft Edge tabs in OS experiences like Alt + Tab, pinned sites, and more. – Windows"
so regardless of what your settings are in Windows
you can stop Edge tabs to appear as separate windows in Alt + Tab view.
- Arti-GCopper ContributorDear all, I urge you to reinstate the #edge-window-tab-manager flag!
The absence of a disable option leads to explorer.exe crashing on every machine, every time. Despite adjustments in Windows settings, explorer.exe consistently crashes due to high handle counts. This issue is widely recognized yet seems to have been overlooked by developers.
Discussion on this topic is available on Reddit: https://www.reddit.com/r/edge/comments/1090h93/having_too_many_1000_microsoft_edge_tabs_open_can/ - MitchBCopper ContributorDoes anyone know the reasoning for this flags removal?
