Crash
Our engineers are currently investigating the problem regarding Dev/Canary not rendering properly or crashing. A fix has been implemented and it appears to have resolved the issue for some users. However, we understand that there are still individuals encountering this problem. Please follow these steps as a workaround:
- Close all instances of "msedge.exe" by killing the processes.
- Add the following command line argument to the "msedge.exe" executable: "msedge.exe --disable-features=msEnhancedTextContrast".
- Launch the browser again.
- In the address bar, enter "edge://flags/#edge-enhance-text-contrast".
- Select either "default" or "disable".
Same issue here. build 115.1880.1
The May Windows updates were applied this morning and Edge crashes about 3 seconds after starting. I can get to the crash page and see them all with the logs uploaded but don't have time to hit the send feedback button before the crash occurs.
The startup parameters also did not fix the issue, I can get to the edge://flags/#edge-enhance-text-contrast and see it's set to default but again browser crashes before I have the chance to make any further changes.
In case it helps I have webroot and keeper extensions enabled (among other's) but I would imagine those are the two big issues that could cause a problem.
- Fixed with 115.0.1880.3
The browser was still on 1880.1 this morning. I went into c:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft\EdgeUpdate and ran MicrosoftEdgeUpdate.exe -update
Repeated for c:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft\EdgeUpdate\1.3.175.27 directory.
Then able to launch the browser successfully.
