Mar 04, 2020Dev channel update to 82.0.439.1 is live
Hello Insiders, today we’re releasing build 82.0.439.1 to the Dev Channel. We also posted a new blog post last week detailing our work to protect you from potentially unwanted applications. Check it out here: https://blogs.windows.com/msedgedev/2020/02/27/protecting-users-potentially-unwanted-apps/. As for all the new things worth mentioning this week:
Added features:
- Added the ability to customize the size and color of ink when annotating PDFs.
- Added a service to suggest an address to try when a navigation to a website fails due to a typo in the address.
- Added support for syncing Tracking Prevention exception settings.
- Added a button in Settings to make Edge the Default Browser.
Improved reliability:
- Fixed an issue where typing in the address bar sometimes causes a browser crash.
- Fixed an issue where selecting text in the address bar sometimes causes a browser crash.
- Fixed an issue where syncing favorites with the Stable channel of Edge sometimes causes a browser crash.
- Fixed an issue where undoing an action taken by the Favorite deduplication tool crashes the browser.
- Fixed an issue where declining to save a password via the dialog sometimes crashes the browser.
- Fixed an issue where entering Immersive Reader sometimes causes a browser crash.
- Fixed an issue where websites that are displayed in an IE mode tab crash the browser when they display a geolocation dialog.
- Fixed a browser crash when opening an IE mode website from a pinned shortcut.
- Fixed an issue where hitting F6 sometimes crashes the browser.
- Fixed a crash when using Collections.
- Fixed an issue where the act of deleting a Collection on one machine will crash the Collections pane on another machine if it’s open when the deletion is synced in.
- Fixed a crash when changing Settings.
- Fixed a crash on launch.
Changed behavior:
- Fixed an issue on Mac where some Appearance Settings are missing.
- After saving a PDF file from within the PDF viewer, the saved file will become the currently-viewed one instead of the original one.
- Fixed an issue where recently visited sites don’t appear in the address bar as search suggestions.
- Fixed an issue where the Windows dialog to choose an application to use when opening a particular type of file keeps opening in a loop when selecting Edge as the application.
- Fixed an issue where certain internal pages like the Favorites management page don’t respond to touch drag and drop.
- Fixed an issue where Windows Information Protection (WIP) sometimes doesn’t work when copying contents out of work or school-related Office documents.
- Fixed an issue where users of WIP can’t access work or school websites in InPrivate.
- Fixed an issue where playing video in fullscreen sometimes hides part of the video.
- Fixed an issue where closing a tab when the Guided Switch dialog is open messes up the visuals of all other tabs.
- Fixed an issue where clicking the button to leave a dangerous website that’s been blocked by SmartScreen disables the back/forward buttons on the address bar.
- Fixed an issue where the feedback screenshot sometimes fails to be taken.
- Fixed an issue where the “Multiple profile preferences” section appears in Settings when only a single browser profile exists.
- Fixed an issue where exporting Collections that have locations like hotels or restaurants in them to Excel results in data missing in the exported spreadsheet.
- Temporarily disabled WIP support on 32-bit Edge to prevent a crash on launch.
Known issues:
- Some users are seeing favorites get duplicated after we made some fixes in that area last month. The most common way this is triggered is by installing a new channel of Edge or installing Edge on another device and then signing into it with an account that has already signed into Edge before. Fixing this should be easier now that the deduplicator tool is available. However, we’ve also seen duplication happen when running the deduplicator on multiple machines before either machine has a chance to fully sync its changes, so while we work on fixing this, make sure to only run the deduplicator on one machine at a time.
- Users of certain security software packages will see all tabs fail to load with the error STATUS_ACCESS_VIOLATION. The only supported way to prevent this behavior is to uninstall that software. We’re currently engaging with the developers of that software to test a potential fix, which we hope to bring to Dev and Canary soon.
- After an initial fix for it recently, some users are still experiencing Edge windows becoming all black. UI popups like menus are not affected and opening the Browser Task Manager (keyboard shortcut is shift + esc) and killing the GPU process usually fixes it. Note that this only appears to affect users with certain hardware.
- There are some issues where users with multiple audio output devices sometimes don’t get any sound from Edge. In one case, Edge becomes muted in the Windows Volume Mixer and unmuting it fixes it. In another, restarting the browser fixes it.
- At certain zoom levels, there is a noticeable line between the browser UI and the web contents.
As always, thanks for all the feedback you’ve given us and bugs you’ve found! What’s your high score in the surf game?
- SeewolfpkBrass ContributorNew is Version 82.0.451.0 (Offizielles Build) canary (64-Bit), where is the changelog?

MissyQ Hey, why the voice online or neutral voice doesn't work on Edge Dev? It still not working yet or maybe the server issues?

Hanif76330 We do have a known issue with using Google search via voice. Is this what you are talking about, or is this something else?

MissyQ The past couple of weeks I've been seeing an issue again that was happening in early november builds. I run into it on freshservice.com - when I submit text for a note or reply to a ticket, I get an error from the site stating that my attachments are over the 25MB limit, but I didn't attach anything. Using internet explorer and am able to submit the same note without issue.
I did submit a feedback on this from the browser, so hopefully the additional data collected with that will be of help identifying the problem.
Thanks!

Will the new tab be improved? Because the "Quick links" are not very customizable, limited quantity, you can not drag to order, you can not change icons or size, etc.
I had to install extensions to have a better new tab page, hopefully improve it soon MissyQ - longlamCopper Contributor
A quite consistent bug I've noticed recently involes the omnibox and using the touch keyboard.
1. Tap the ombibox to invoke the touch keyboard.
2. Press the Ctrl first then try to press C or V to use the Copy/Paste function. It never works if Ctrl is the first button presses after invoking the touch keyboard.
This problem seems to be limited to the omnibox alone.

longlam This is feedback I've seen a few times. Please submit the feedback through the browser while on the touch device you use, and include diagnostics. This way the team can get a good idea on what devices users are on. 🙂
user0719 Please submit feedback through the browser including diagnostics, too! The favorites team is consistently evaluating choices made based on feedback from users, and this is a solid suggestion that I am sure they would love to see! 😄
Loving all the chatter here, guys! Seeing you all talk to and help each other out gives me warm, fuzzy feelings. ❤️

bookmarks: please disable the auto closing folder after moving or deleting ann item.
On the bookmark bar, when we open a folder to delete or to move an item, the folder automatically close after each action. We need to reopen it to do a second action, idem again for a third. It's a pain.

Just reported a scroll issue with tablet & pen.
please ignore, as it solved itself after a pc reboot.
cheers for the updates! 🙂 - Tom_FoxIron Contributor
I also still have black screenshots, on Dell and HP laptops, using Edge Dev and Canary. Could it be related to graphics drivers?
I have Intel HD Graphics 520 in one, Intel HD Graphics 4000 in another and my VM uses VMware SVGA 3D too, which I connect to with RDP.

On latest Dev change logs it says the problem is fixed. fixed means it shouldn't happen again but if you are still seeing black screen shots on feedback window, reinstall your Edge browser and delete user data when asked during uninstall.

So I exported my favourites and passwords, deleted all of my profile data in AppData, uninstalled Edge Dev, rebooted, reinstalled and bingo! Now I can submit feedback with screenshots! I will do the same on my work laptop and VM tomorrow.
Great job Edge Team for fixing this one, it was getting really annoying that I couldn't easily send issues to you. Now just the sound problems when playing videos...

Cant get it, why "Continue on PC" still opens old Edge. Any suggestions, please?
