This is an upstream bug and being tracked via: https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=1017069. Fix should be available in 80.0.3949.0.

Thanks!

  Hi,
  but I think that version you mentioned belongs to Google chrome or chromium, not Edge insider canary, which is currently on Version 80.0.315.0 (Official build) canary (64-bit).
  it has a different set of numbers.
