This has become an issue again, which seemed initially to be solved, Yesterday admittedly after having an Edge session with multiple tabs probably open for most of the week the Browser Metrics folder had ballooned to 179GB, currently with 2 tabs open it's generating 20 4MB files a minute so 4.8GB an hour so I now have 32Hrs 30 minutes of disk space until Edge fills my OS SSD again.
I've already added the reg key described and set to 0 and confirmed that this has applied in edge://policy. I can't find a root cause for this but unless I'm able to pretty soon I'll just have to go back to chrome.
