Edge Browser - Top portion is unclickable
MS Edge - Version 108.0.1462.46 (Official build) (x86_64)
macOS - Ventura 13.0.1 (22A400)
Issue - When Edge browser is in full screen, the top portion from left to right right below the bookmarks about an inch is unclickable.
Steps that have been done - Removed browser including all leftover contents and reinstalled. This does happen on multiple devices. This occurs on two Macbooks and an iMac. I know it's not macOS specific. The iMac is brand new and had the previous OS, Monterey installed and still had the same issue.

- This is still happening, on Edge v118.0.2088.46 (Official Build) on my Intel 2019 Macbook pro processor (2.6 GHz 6-Core Intel Core i7), graphics (AMD Radeon Pro 5300M 4 GB
Intel UHD Graphics 630 1536 MB) running MacOS14.1. I've experienced this issue off and on for about 4 months now. My old 2019 Mac Pro (same processor, unknown graphics, running MacOS 10-12) never had this issue.
Think I have to give up and go back to just using chrome. D3FC0NX This issue is still occurring. I can't click on the address bar and the bookmarks while on the full screen. Sometimes the links to the web pages are also not clickable, but they start working once I exit full screen and enter again.

- I Found a Solution Today! Just install Beta Version of Microsoft Edge and this issue Solved!
- ISSUE RESOLVED. Apple or Microsoft seems to resolved the issue. Thankfully. I replaced my Macbook Pro 2020 (Intel) a few weeks ago with a new Macbook Air 2022 (M2). I think the issue was occurring, but it's no longer occurring as of today. Here are the current versions:
macOS - Ventura 13.2.1
MS Edge - Version 111.0.1661.51 (Official build) (arm64) The same problem for me on Macbook Pro (Silicon). The only workaround for me is switching to full-screen mode.
The reddit thread linked here has someone claiming that removing uBlock Origin solved the issue.
I've removed and haven't seen the issue for two days. This is anecdotal and I'm skeptical because it happened on websites where I had uBlock disabled.
On the off-chance it works though, I wanted to share so maybe someone can confirm on their side as well.
I'll post another update if I encounter the issue again with uBlock removed.
- I've noticed if I move the mouse a little under the button or link that's not working at the top of a webpage, I can get the hand pointer to function for the clickable element. It's as if the browser is misaligned near the top if you opt for either a full-screen or full-height Edge browser window.
- Same issue. Latest Edge Version(111.0.1661.51), ventura 13.2.1, 13 inch MacBook Pro 2019
"Shift + Ctrl + Windows Key + B" appears to clear the video cache and resolved the problem for me - at least for now.
Thank you for that fix, although it doesn’t appear to be isolated to just Macs, I was having this problem too on a Windows machine.
- I have the same issue. People on Reddit have this issue as well: https://www.reddit.com/r/MicrosoftEdge/comments/zmldth/i_cant_click_on_anything_on_the_top_part_of_the/
