Dev channel update to 93.0.910.5 is live

Hello Insiders!  Today we’re releasing build 93.0.910.5 to the Dev channel.  As you can see, this is the first 93, so we’re a little lighter this week than last when it comes to changes, but we’ve still got lots to talk about! 

• If you’re looking for new things to try, you can turn on the flag (and setting) to always use HTTPS when connecting to websites:  https://blogs.windows.com/msedgedev/2021/06/01/available-for-preview-automatic-https-helps-keep-your-browsing-more-secure/.  Please note that this will likely result in errors when connecting to websites that don’t support secure connections, so use at your own risk!
• If you’re looking for something less risky, we’ve also got a flag you can turn on to improve font rendering:  https://blogs.windows.com/msedgedev/2021/06/02/improving-font-rendering-in-microsoft-edge/.  For many people, this should bring the way text looks back to what it was in Edge Legacy. 
• Finally, we’ve got an overview of some upcoming shopping features:  https://blogs.windows.com/windowsexperience/2021/05/27/new-shopping-features-to-help-you-save-money-for-summer-fun-and-all-your-back-to-school-needs/.  If you’re a user of Bing Rebates or on the lookout for the best deal, this one’s for you!

Now, for this week’s notables:

Added features: 

• Added a button on Mac that will directly appear on certain videos to let users enter Picture in Picture mode.
• Added the ability on Mac to use fingerprint authentication to allow viewing or autofilling a password. 
• Added the Share option to the … menu in PWAs and websites installed as apps. 
• Improved inking latency. 

Improved reliability: 

• Fixed a crash when navigating to a website. 
• Fixed a crash when using the profile switcher in PWAs. 
• Fixed a crash when using Google Meet. 

Changed behavior: 

• Fixed an issue where certain Settings pages are blank. 
• Fixed an issue where the Immersive Reader toolbar is sometimes blank. 
• Fixed an issue where icons on the toolbar that have text bubbles on them, for example extension buttons, are clipped or only partially visible. 
• Fixed an issue where pinning a website to the Taskbar sometimes fails. 
• Fixed an issue where toast notifications from websites sometimes don’t appear. 
• Fixed an issue where the Save/Save As buttons in the Downloads popup aren’t shown properly in certain languages. 
• Fixed an issue on Mac where opening a new tab sometimes doesn’t scroll the vertical tabs pane to make the newly-opened tab visible. 
• Fixed an issue where irrelevant data is saved by autofill. 
• Fixed an issue where user-installed fonts sometimes aren’t displayed correctly. 
• Fixed an issue where Guided Switch settings for specific websites sometimes aren’t respected. 
• Disabled the ability to customize the site list for Guided Switch on devices that have Information Protection enforced since the functionality is broken in this scenario. 

Known issues: 

• Certain extensions such as the Microsoft Editor extension don’t work on Linux.  As soon as they’re installed, they crash and are disabled.  We’re currently investigating. 
• Users of certain ad blocking extensions may experience playback errors on Youtube.  As a workaround, temporarily disabling the extension should allow playback to proceed.  See this help article for more details. 
• Some users are still running into an issue where all tabs and extensions immediately crash with a STATUS_INVALID_IMAGE_HASH error.  The most common cause of this error is outdated security or antivirus software from vendors like Symantec, and in those cases, updating that software will fix it. 
• Users of the Kaspersky Internet Suite who have the associated extension installed may sometimes see webpages like Gmail fail to load.  This failure is due to the main Kaspersky software being out of date, and is thus fixed by making sure the latest version is installed. 
• Some users are still seeing favorites get duplicated.  This issue should be reduced now that automatic deduplication has been introduced into Insider channels, but we’re still rolling that out in Stable.  We’ve also seen duplication happen when running the manual deduplicator on multiple machines before either machine has a chance to fully sync its changes, so make sure to leave plenty of time in between runs of the deduplicator. 
• Some users are seeing “wobbling” behavior when scrolling using trackpad gestures or touchscreens, where scrolling in one dimension also causes the page to subtly scroll back and forth in the other.  Note that this only affects certain websites and seems to be worse on certain devices.  This is most likely related to our ongoing work to bring scrolling back to parity with Edge Legacy’s behavior, so if this behavior is undesirable, you can temporarily turn it off by disabling the edge://flags/#edge-experimental-scrolling flag. 

Beta users, be on the lookout for version 92 to come to you soon!
