Office XML Handler
Yes of course feedback is a good way,
but the thing is I'm not sure what the problem is exactly,
you can set Edge insider to be the default XML opener using this method (which i think you already know)
Click on "look for another app on this PC"
and browse for the Edge insider browser location,
mine is here for Canary:
"C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Edge SxS\Application\msedge.exe"
once you do that, Edge will be available in the list and will appear like this:
Now all you have to do is to Select Edge and after that check the box that says "always use this app to open .XML files.
then all XML files on your computer will correctly get Edge icon
about the error when showing XML files, it only happens when the XML file is Not properly formatted according to the W3C standards, but if you use correct XML files like these examples then they open fine in browsers.

Hello
If I open an XML file with Canary then "Show Source Page", the layout is better
Is there a "path" to open Canary directly in "source page" ?
Something to put in front of or behind the path of .exe
Thanks
- Yes, providing that IE is installed and available on the system
- Yw, As you wish 🙂
Ok thanks for the explanation but the "formatting" is just horrible compared to IE for example
And I do not like to have an error or warning message, for me it's that something is wrong 🙂I would watch with Google Chrome see how it's
And for XML files that does not open, I'll indicate it by feedback, so
Thanks
- I found some more information about it
"This XML file does not appear to have any style information associated with it. The document tree is shown below.
You can ignore this completely. It doesn't mean anything important and can be safely ignored. For the technical description of what it means, see below.
XML is a way of marking up a file to give the text meaning. For example, you can include a URL in a text file and surround it by the XML tags <url> and </url>. This would give an application instructions on how to handle the text (ie treat it as a URL).
An advanced feature of an XML file is to give styling information. This means that the XML document can be displayed to you in your web browser with fancy font styling to make it look nice. Since an XML file is mostly for inter-application communications, it doesn't need any kind of styling. When you go to view the XML file in your browser, your browser is just telling you that there is no styling information so it is displaying the XML file as is."
hope that helps You don't have to worry about it ^^
The message isn't an "error" but rather a warning and need not be solved but ignored. An XML document is a data structure but does not contain any presentation/style information internally. Normally an XML document is used in inter-application communication or as a pure data structure that is then used with additional presentation/style information to display to users.
XML can be applied style by XSLT just as HTML by CSS and the above warning can be eradicated
Yes I tested this (indicated Edge as the default program) and the layout of the XML file is horrible and I have this message above the content
"This XML file does not appear to have any style information associated with it. The document tree is shown below."
For example :
No problem with IE
Thanks
