Dangerous exclamation in triangle filled in icon on every page at the beginning right before loading
it's annoying and didn't happen before the newest update
I know! An update set #enable-mark-http-as in the flags to Enabled (mark with a grey triangle icon) from Disabled.
I don't think it should have a grey triangle or be actively dangerous. I think an 'i' in an outlined circle is sufficient. FYI setting it to Enabled, Default and Disabled all set it to Enabled (mark with a Not Secure warning and dangerous on form edits). I still set it to disabled to tell Microsoft and Google (I also use Chrome). I support making HTTPS less prominent though.
pneenkoalabear I'm getting a similar behavior from Google Chrome, so I assume it's not specific to Edge, but to Chromium itself.

Do you still see your problem after disabling that flag? how about setting it to default?
- Which version are you using? I can't seem to produce the issue on any of my machines
HotCakeX I'm using Chrome 77.0.3865.120. I don't have the dev Edge on that machine to confirm the Edge behavior, but I can confirm that it's happening to Chrome. It does not happen to all pages nor all the time, but I saw it happen a couple of time... I see that "exclamation warning message" when starting to load a page (maybe for 1 or 2 seconds) and it goes away when the page loads.
- Hi, would you mind attaching a screenshot of that you're referring to? Thanks
- I'm referring to the page info icon in the omnibox
Okay so based on what you say, If all of the websites are shown as insecure, the first logical thing that comes to mind is that the Trusted Root Certificate Authorities are probably missing/deleted.

Though it could also be a 3rd party extension or Flags. so you could try resetting all the flags to their default values and temporary disabling any 3rd party extension.
