Missing history button in Edge Stable?
I've waited a while to ask this because I thought maybe it's a feature that's being rolled out in stages but it seems to have been around for a long time now and rolled out simultaneously on all of m...
Hi,
This is probably still a controlled feature rollout, like I mentioned in my other comment, the release note says nothing about it.
you're talking about history flyout, well, favorites flyout came even before that but one of my Edge stable installations doesn't even have that.
Thank you josh_bodner I have the same version , same problem happy to do any tests required or make registry changes. I have already done a full profile reset so that edge started as new.

Microsoftfrogman2205 I talked with the team, and it looks like this is indeed a lingering rollout as HotCakeX mentioned, so there's not much you can do other than maybe uninstalling and reinstalling to try to get into a different rollout population.
- josh_bodner, Today my PC updated to Version 90.0.818.62 (Official build) (64-bit) this has NOT resolved the issue where on the PC I have User account A on that PC that does not show the button still, and on Windows user accounts B and C which shows the button as expected with the new rollout.
I no longer believe this is 'an expected behavior' as that PC shows the new history functionality with all accounts except the one Windows User Account. As mentioned before I have deleted the Edge profile associated with that user account and reset Edge, any other suggestions would be welcome.- Yep I too am running Version 90.0.818.62 (Official build) (64-bit) and also still have no sign of this History menu. It's really starting to seem like this is a bug at this point but since we don't have any information from the Edge team about the rollout of this feature it's difficult to know if it's a bizarrely slow feature rollout. I feel at this point I might only get this feature in a few years when I upgrade my computer because it doesn't seem to like something about this one.
- yep, I feel you are right DanielRyan, I have a 6 month old laptop as well as my main PC, and running on the same A/C it gets all the latest Edge features when they are released !
I believe MS people are trying to pull the wool over us quoting A/B Rollout testing as an excuse for a broken feature. I'm sure a quick reg tweak should fix our problem, which may have arisen from the history of our machines... mine for example was an upgrade from Windows 8.
- BTW I would uninstall & reinstall Edge but there is no longer a way to do this (unless someone knows better)
- josh_bodner, Today I updated to version 89.0.774.57, and on the same PC I have User account A on that PC that does not show the button still, and user account B and C which shows the button as expected with the new rollout. On a different PC I have the Micorsoft user account A and it also show the button correctly in the new way. IF my account of PC is lagging in the rollout, why does it work like this?
why does it work like that?
to help them quickly identify issues that may impact performance and reliability, so not everyone will be affected at the same time.
more info:
like I said, it has nothing to do with being correct or incorrect, just how it is. and unlike other users claim, it's not a problem nor a bug. developer said it's still a staged rollout.
if you want and can't wait, try the Beta channel. it's officially supported too.

Myślę że do jest najlepsze podsumowanie - Tematu !
Po prostu nie wszyscy od razu ( NIE - mogą mieć )
pełny stabilny Edge - Czasem trzeba poczekać - Warto być cierpliwym jak pisze HotCakeX to jest dobra odpowiedź !
DziękujeAndrzej
