Same here.
some features tend to come and go regularly. i blame the A/B testing. because of that, the features in the Edge browsers are fluid, they can be enabled and disabled remotely. so even though the codes are inside your browser, they are not activated.

I understand A/B testing, but I have a hard time believing that this is not a bug.
- HotCakeXSep 04, 2019MVPDon't think it's only about the Microsoft Edge insider.
Windows 10 insider is the same. they are applying this A/B testing to the whole range of Insider products. some Windows 10 insider features are available in one build for some people and on the next one they will become unavailable for that same people but will become available for another bunch of people.
they also do it on the regional basis, detecting users' location based on their IP address. it's complicated - HotCakeXSep 04, 2019MVPLook for example I don't currently have the Share button in my Edge UI. few hours later it will come back by itself. the same applies to other features.
another example is the sync options, sometimes it shows only favorite sync is enabled, after a while the rest of them come back.
it also happened when they first introduced the favorites button at the top of the browser next to profile picture. used to come and go randomly until it stopped and became a fixed button.- Keith DavisSep 04, 2019Iron ContributorAgain, not the same thing as a Close Other Tabs option to me.
