Toolbar and favorites bar size

It seems a pretty awful experience to me whenever I use stable version of Edge. Toolbar and favorites bar are huge. It might not be a problem to some users. But I have a 14 inch, 1366*768 monitor. Where the aspect ratio is 16:9. Is anyone else experiencing this problem.

  • Thanks for sharing the issue!

    After some quick searching around, there is a new option in the "Appearance" settings in Edge that has a thing called "Touch Mode".

    Click the drop down from "Automatic" to "disabled" and it should fix the issue!

    I am sure this update was more geared for Tablet users!

    Anyways, have a wonderful day!

    God bless,

    Shawn

        You can fix that problem.
        Follow the following steps.
        1. Go to settings.
        2. Go to appearance tab.
        3. Scroll down to touch mode and turn it off.

        If it isn't available in edge. Microsoft might have fixed it. It fixed mine.

        Have a great day, Brian.

      DarkCoder That was a problem too. But now I know how to fix it.  

      If you are having such problem then I want you to turn off the touch mode in appearance tab in Settings. 

      Have a great day.
