- My search engines are back!
Another bug which got fixed is that upon selecting text on a web page, we can right-click/search again. Great!
Yet this fix was not listed in the announcement above. May I kindly suggest that future announcements provide a full & comprehensive rundown of all the new features and resolved issues? This would be highly appreciated. Thank you.
- It seems like the address bar search bug has also been fixed.
- Is it possible to get a Mica theme again? That translucent effect was perfect, and I really wish I could have it back. Why was it removed?
Ryan Buckwalter Yes, you can!
- Create a new msedge shortcut including the switch --enable-features=msVisualRejuvMica,msVisualRejuvHubs on the end of the shortcut.
- Completely close msedge.exe (make sure that isn't running on the background)
- Run msedge from the shortcut you just created
- Then go to Settings -> Appearance -> "Show Windows 11 visual effects in title bar and toolbar (Preview)" and turn on. It will ask you to restart your browser. After click on 'restart' he will get the Mica effect every time you run msedge through your shortcut.
This works on Canary, Dev, Beta and even for those who got the "Try the new look of Microsoft Edge" on stable channel- I agree. The new dark color is nice, but I'm really craving the translucent Fluent design.
- The new dark color is great!
- Wondering why the "new dark color" is not listed in the official changes list above...
