Todays .211 Canary update Issue

Major issue after today's .211 Canary update. Anything you have open on the Taskbar can't be clicked on. It is hidden behind Canary and will not come to the front.

You have to minimize Canary to get to anything else open.

  • the problem is called "always on top" which had been in Google Chrome Canary too for almost a week but few days ago it got patched. now Microsoft should patch it as well. it's definitely related to the chromium engine.

    I second that. 211 will not yield it's top most position.

    CrazyKats I am seeing the same thing.

     

    Edge Canary stays in front of anything already open or anything I start from Taskbar or Start.

    However, some things in the System Tray will pop up, like Network, Sound or 3rd party VPN, while other items open behind Edge Canary, like Bluetooth.

     

    Windows version 1903 build 18362.175. Edge Canary 77.0.211.0.

     

    I have also reported this using the Send Feedback smiley.

  • same issue here, seems Edge is running now always on top.
