Introducing Workspaces in Edge | New feature
HotCakeX Is this feature available in the most recent Canary build for MacOS? I'm not seeing that little button next to the "Turn on vertical tabs" button. Thanks!

Hi,
it's not rolled out to everyone just yet.
https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/articles/controlled-feature-roll-outs-in-microsoft-edge/m-p/763678I only use Windows.
- Jeffz9527Apr 13, 2021Brass ContributorGreat feature, I activated it according to https://www.realmicentral.com/2021/04/12/microsoft-added-a-new-hidden-workspaces-feature-to-edge-canary/
But later, I updated my windows 10 to 21H1 beta 19043.906, the workspace button disappeared 😞- GregBurlingameApr 13, 2021Brass Contributor
Jeffz9527 Thanks for sharing that article. Is it possible the reason the feature disappeared after your Windows upgrade is because your modified Canary shortcut (with the command line argument) was overwritten during the upgrade?
I'm on a Mac so I tried launching Canary from the terminal using this command:
open -a "Microsoft Edge Canary" --args -–enable-features=msWorkspaces
Canary launched, but the Workspaces features was not enabled.
HotCakeX Do you know who from Microsoft moderates this forum and could give us a more definitive understanding of the status of this interesting new feature? Example: Is it only currently available in the Windows build of Canary? Thanks!

HotCakeX Thank you for sharing that link. I was not aware that is how MS deploys features to the Canary channel.
- HotCakeXApr 09, 2021MVPYou're welcome, it also applies to Dev, Beta and in some cases stable channel.
