Edge Chromium Dev now unsupported by Google Docs
Could we not use a Chrome extension therefore to force change the user agent string?
If so, what would be the updated user agent string to use?
Thanks!
ianwuk An extensioin like User Agent Switcher would probably work in Edge C. As to the actual user agent string I don't have the expertise to type it out but the extension usually has built in strings to choose from. I would think one that says it is Chrome 69 would work. That is what I used in Opera to fool a financial site that didn't like Opera.

Hi Eric.
I did try such an extension but, like you, I didn't know the latest user agent string to use for Chrome. So, no matter what I tried, I couldn't get the message about Edge Chromium being unsupported to go away.
Update for you Eric__W I seem to have fixed it for now:
1 - Install User Agent Switcher from the Chrome Web Store https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/user-agent-switcher/clddifkhlkcojbojppdojfeeikdkgiae
2 - Edit the Google Chrome Windows user agent string to be:
Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/73.0.3683.86 Safari/537.36
3 - Set the option inside the User Agent Switcher extension to remember the selected user agent at start-up.
Regards.
