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.
frogman2205 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.- I just updated to the very latest stable release. STILL no History button available in the options. I fear it is a corrupt registry entry for the one Windows profile. I am happy to make changes at my own risk but I do not want to move my existing profile to a new one with the button. Can anyone steer me in the right area?
V 91.0.864.48
- BTW I would uninstall & reinstall Edge but there is no longer a way to do this (unless someone knows better)
