    📣 Update, 3 July 2026:

    ✔ As of the latest 150.0.4078.48 update, the missing bookmark icons issue is fixed.  You can once-again set "browsing history" to clear each time you close Edge, and icons will remain between sessions. 🥳

    ✔ As of the 149.0.4022.80 update, these issues were resolved:
    • "Create QR code for this page" feature works again
    • "Browsing history" in the "Clear browsing data" menu isn't always stuck on "Calculating..."

    ✔ As of the 149.0.4022.62 update, these issues were resolved:
    • moving the mouse-pointer to the top of the screen when Edge is in full-screen mode once-again shows the tabs and URL bar, and the double-arrow icon appears once-more to allow exiting full-screen mode;
    • when users saved files to network-locations (\\server\share\folder), Edge would not open either the downloaded files, or the folder they were saved into; online reports said the .62 update fixed this

Me too. I have also lost my string of icons. It is really annoying. I have tried both Claude and ChatGPT for solutions without success. Has anyone been able to get their favicons reinstated following this problematic update from Microsoft? I would be grateful for the steps to take. I am not that PC literate at age 66!
