    Came for the Hololens 2 beta left with nothing? It was rumored around that Hololens 2 had a build but I'm not seeing anything?

josh_bodner I greatly appreciate the "Tabs from other devices" because I'm working on 2 PCs in different locations. Unfortunately I have tried out the "Hide for now" function. It does work :xd: but now I'm stuck because I don't know to unhide these tabs again. 
I'd appreciate any help.

benpal, it looks like when you hide a device, it remains hidden until there's a change on the hidden device. Refreshing a tab or opening a new tab on the hidden device will cause it to bounce back into the screen.

 

I don't like this design, TBH. What happens if you do that accidentally, and the remote machine is inaccessible? A better option, I think, is to keep it hidden until a browser on the local machine.

    Richard_Bottiglieri Thanks for explaining the underlying logic. I'll try it as soon as I get to the "other device". 
    The function kind of removes the existing history of the other device. Lesson learned, I will simply avoid "hiding" the other device in the future. .
