Edge Beta / Dev / Canary not starting
As of this morning Edge Beta stopped working: if I double click on the icon nothing happens. I tried intalling Dev and Canary but the same thing happens. Only the stable edition keeps working. I'm...
- Sep 02, 2022FIXED!!
I scanned the registry for 'MetricsReportingEnabled'. It appeared on my PC under Edge two times.
1. [Computer\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Edge\]
2. [Computer\HKEY_USERS\S-1-5-21-3783096567-2060243791-1526209860-
1001\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Edge\]
Deleted both and now I'm happy again.

Hi Strubi99
had the same problem with Canary build 105.0.1335.0, maybe the bug somehow made it into your Beta.
So just to check, please try to start your Edge Beta with this command line switch:
--disable-features=msShorelineNotifications,msShorelineSnoozeNotifications
To do this, open a command prompt and navigate to your msedge.exe:
cd "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft\Edge Beta\Application"
- Then run the following command:
msedge.exe --disable-features=msShorelineNotifications,msShorelineSnoozeNotifications
Does this start your Beta now?

kashyap1709 This has been happening, first on Canary, now Beta doesn't work at all. I'm totally screwed.
- kashyap1709Aug 24, 2022Copper ContributorI have downgraded to 105.0.1300 dev version and won't update anymore. ☹️
- Strubi99Aug 21, 2022Copper ContributorNo joy.
I tried doing as you suggested but I keep experiencing the same issue. - Strubi99Aug 19, 2022Copper ContributorUnfortunately I am away for the weekend. I will let you know as soon as I get home.
