Edge crashes on Sharepoint or Azure DevOps sites

Do you know the reason why new Edge (both canary and dev) crashes when I visit sharepoint or azure devops sites. It is not always. Sometimes I need to switch tab, and it crashes when I switch it back to sharepoint. When it comes to azure devops it crashes almost everytime after login.

    Mr1008 I use Azure DevOps almost daily but never experienced these crashes, could you list some repro steps so I can try to have the same issue ? Any specific URL maybe ? Do you have any extensions btw ?

      AmineI Actually this started happening a few days ago (3-5 I don't remember correctly). I was using canary version all the time and had some extensions enabled but today because of this error I downloaded Dev version to check it out. I did not install any extensions there but the problem was still there. 

       

      Steps to reproduce:

      1. Pasted PR URL pointing to azure devops repo to address bar

      2. Press enter > auth prompt appears

      3. When I submit credentials it crashes. 

       

      Note please that this does not occur every time. Sometimes it crashes immediately, sometimes it crashes after some time (maybe I hover a mouse on specific element?) and sometimes it crashes when I focus the faulty tab (then immediate crash).

      With sharepoint it is a similar case. To be honest it happened also once on this page (edge preview forum). I could not reproduce this bug on any other page so far. 

       

      It happens on my work PC where I have:

      Windows 10 1809 (17763.475)

      CPU: Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-6500 CPU @ 3.20GHz

      GPU: CPU-integrated Intel HD Graphics 530 with 25.20.100.6618 driver

        Could it be the auth page then Mr1008 , instead of specifically Azure DevOps or SharePoint ? I think organizations can customize them too (mine put a custom background in it), maybe something in there doesn't like the browser (or the browser doesn't like it ;) ). Would make sense if it also happens on SharePoint for you apparently, and even once here as you said ?
