Searching in Edge web history is only limited to the past few days
When I try to search for a website that was registered in web history in Edge in the past, I can't get any results.
Edge's history page doesn't automatically reload past histories to include them in the search
this page: edge://history/all
needs to be able to actively get older web history entries from our Microsoft account to make the web history search actually practical and useful.
not only the past 2-3 weeks, but go back months.
sent feedback using feedback button on Edge, if you like the idea i encourage you to do the same, that will act like an "upvote" for this
thank you

Thanks for bringing this up and reporting. I have faced the same issue where if I want to search older history entries and encountered the same. Reported on my end as well.
- Thank you!
- DeletedGreat suggestion, I am just really annoyed that they still have the edge://history but there is no other way to access that area without needing to the flyout menu. I love the flyout but I just prefer the other way. It was just much easier.
Will send feedback,
Have a great day 🙂
Shawn- If they fix the search, the flyout or the sidebar can easily replace that page
- DeletedYeah, just add it by default to the toolbar and make it more wider and easier for people. Well I can see taht as a issue for tocuh users
