Edge Canary freezes
Hello
Since some version of Canary, on pages consuming resources (more than 800MB for example), Canary freezes for a few moments and returns to normal
It also does if I open a new tab sometimes and I also have the message "Edge is not responding", but not all the time
Canary's problem?
Thanks
PS: when Canary freezes, I can do anything else on my PC without problem
Already reported in feedback since the 1st time
Don't know if this relates to the same issue, but since changing to v89 engine I've got massive problems with freezing pages in either Dev and Canary (doesn't happen on Stable Channel).
Some examples to reproduce:
- when trying to scroll in dropdowns (eg category dropdown on amazon)
- when using datepickers
- when using translate.google.com and then hitting the back button several times
- when hitting the back button on youtube after playing a video
The browser hangs for 10-30 sec, saying "Edge is not responding", then returns to normal behaviour again. This also happens on Google Chrome Canary, so I assume it's some bug in the Chromium core.
And yes, I disabled all extensions and also set Hardware Acceleration to Off for testing, but thar doesn't change the freezing effect.
- You might need to fully reinstall your Edge canary.
I'm testing on Version 89.0.752.0 (Official build) canary (64-bit)
and I can include attachments with feedback.

MS must do what is necessary.They are doing "something", but if the bug is annoying for you, you can switch to a more stable channel.
no one should expect Canary to be bug-free and work as good as stable channel.
- Always the problem, indicated by the feedback
Still not solved the problem, really annoying this problem...
- Yep, have started having the same problem too. Especially when I have 8 or 9 tabs open..
Dennis5mile- For me usually the youtube videos when i switch to full screen causes that
- Yes canary problem, same for me.
