- Dev as well
- It would be nice to have an announcement with each update like we used to. A post every couple of releases isn't as helpful.
- On top of the UI bugs reported in this thread, I've also encountered performance issues in this build. The UI doesn't respond to mouse clicks randomly this persists until a browser restart or force browser restart
- Same here. Random unresponsiveness.
Currently cannot run 117 builds on my Manjaro Linux machine at all. It tries to startup but the window never appears functional and when hovering the taskbar the window causes a screen flickering like there is some issue with GPU rendering and then the whole program dies shortly after launch. 6.4 kernel NVIDIA 535 drivers. Dunno how to get logs for this since I cannot provide feedback when it will not let me in at all.
The browser UI is so broken with this release. There are 2X now to close the browser tabs, the favourite bar is twice the size now.
SumitDhiman Facing the exact same issue today. It was fine the entire week.
- Found the problem - Touch mode in Appearance Settings was set as Auto, turning it off fixed the issue.
- - Blank edge://settings/passwords page.
- Lost Windows accent color on title bar, now it's always gray. Note this does not happen when vertical tabs are enabled. Please share some insights on intentions.
- Title bar often does not respond to double-clicking, dragging, or right-clicking. Requires minimizing and restoring the window to be responsive again.- You can also right-click on the tabs to fix it. Found it out the hard way.
Eric_E Here is my ms edge insider:
Eric_E It is fixed now. I don't know why that happened.
A few hours later this is Edge dev.
- Lost all profiles. How do I get them back? On Windows 11.
- Since this build, my Settings > Profiles > Passwords page is blank. Disabled extensions, rebooted several times. No change.
