Translate doesnt seem to work
I tried using the built-in translate in build 75.0.139.4 doesnt consistently work. About 50% of time it doesnt do anything other than the translate icon spins. Steps to reproduce:
1. Go to: https://www.microsoftedgeinsider.com/en-us/welcome/update?channel=dev&version=75.0.139.4
2. Click on the translate icon in address bar and pick a language.
3. May translate.
4. If it translates choose a different language.
5. For me doesnt translate and just get spinning translate icon.

Hi David Williams, thank you for reporting this issue. I am not seeing this behavior, when I try the steps that you have listed. Are there languages or network conditions that you find cause translation to fail more often than others?
Elliot Kirk, no its not any particular language but it always happens on the second time I translate a page after I translate it. For example:
1. Go to http://www.microsoft.com and comes up in English.
2. Click on translate icon and change to Dutch and it changes to Dutch.
3. Click on translate icon and change to German and the icon just spins.
If I try any language in step 3 it does the same thing.
I am running this on Windows 10 Build 1809
This is on hardwired/ethernet network connection connected to internet using Gigabit fiber.
Are there any logs you would like me to send?
David Williams, I have reached out to the team that is working on translation. When I hear back from them, I will let you know. Thank you again for trying out these new features as we bring them online.
