Dev channel update to 97.0.1069.0 is live

Same problem. Edge Dev crashes spontaneously every few minutes, no specific pattern I could attribute these crashes to so far, happens even while Edge is just open and idling. I have cleared cache and cookies, to no avail.
Update: Edge Dev crashes systematically when I try to add a language (English (USA) in my case) .
benpal Yours sounds like a different issue, then. Can you reproduce that crash in Canary as well? I can't on any of my machines, but I also already have that language installed since I'm in the US, so I can't tell if it's something specific to that language, or something else.

josh_bodner When I launch Edge Dev on my second PC and before touching anything, I see these strange settings:
As soon as I start using Edge or when I reload the settings page, this reverts to my ususal settings:
On my second PC too, Edge crashes when attempting to add a language. It also crashes randomly the same as on this PC.

While I was writing my reply, Edge Dev crashed twice, the second time freezing the whole system with no other way out than a hard power off. This crash left a System error memory dump file of over 10 GB. This also happens quite frequently (approx. once a day). I suspect that Edge is the culprit.
PS: ... and right after posting this reply, Edge crashed again. And again after posting this edit ....

josh_bodner Dev crashes consistently when trying to add a language and it also crashes spontaneously and frequently for no obvious reason, sometimes even while idling.
I just installed Canary and this is what it shows in the language setting "out of the box":
Any attempt to add a language crashes Canary as well.
My normal settings I want to have this:I have also contacted your support on this issue: [Case #:1030897204]
