Edge browser crashes after file download / open

Hello, 

I am using Edge browser  Version 142.0.3595.80 (Official build) (64-bit),  on Linux.
When  downloading a file , and trying to open the downloaded file from wihin browser, it causes  edge browser instances to close. I have been using  other browsers  to get around the problem.
Is this a known problem, and  are there a solution to this problem?

 

Thanks,

Jay

    Hello Jay!

    I have the error (Fedora 42, Edge 143 but started on 142, on Wayland+GNOME) that if I choose "Save" (in the standard destination) or "Open" it works as desired, but when I choose "Save in..." and the file explorer should come up Edge crashes completly. Already posted it here but the moderators never published my entry....

    Are you also using Wayland?

     

    With kind regards,

    Steve
