Edge won't start in Ubuntu
The MS-Edge icon just appears on the dock, but the browser is not seen, and after a while the icon also goes away. Tried to open through the terminal. This is what I get. [9308:9308:0920/093358.0...
Worked for me after removing lock files:
rm -rf ~/.config/microsoft-edge/Singleton*I was getting crash even when run from command line:
/opt/microsoft/msedge$ ./microsoft-edge
