hi,
it's back to the way it was before now, in Edge Version 90.0.784.0 (Official build) canary (64-bit)
pinned tabs in vertical tabs only have favicons, when the vertical tab panel is pinned.

THANK YOU for sharing, i have switched over to canary for now, it's much better having the favicons only option back.
- HotCakeXFeb 04, 2021MVPYou're welcome,
Dev will soon get the change too 🙂- Norm HinmanMar 10, 2021Copper ContributorJust confirmed that the upgrade from Edge 88.0.705.81 to 89.0.774.48 (Official build) (64-bit) screwed up the pinned tabs by changing them from icons to full text. This hogs all of the real estate on the left side of the browser window and, if you have enough pinned tabs, makes it so you can't even access or scroll the unpinned tabs. Please put it back! This removes and spoils the beauty of vertical tabs. If you don't want to put it back as it was, at least give us a choice of how to display the pinned tabs so we can put it back based on preference.

please make sure to send this using the feedback button on Edge too.

Edge developers made that change but after some time, when they realized people don't like it, reverted it back, but the change happened in version 90 (if i remember correctly). so i mean the next stable version will definitely be the way you want, and insider channels like Dev/Canary/(soon)Beta are the way you want.
