    Thanks everyone for the help on this one!  The team has a fix, which is planned to be released with the next Stable 128 update, later this week.  

     

    As a temporary workaround, you should be able to use the following command line argument: 

     

    "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft\Edge\Application\msedge.exe" --disable-features="msIrm, msIrmv2, msEndpointDlp"

malloy9932150 the bug looks associated with a recent change that Edge and Google Chrome share based on what I see.  Here is what lead me to that conclusion.

 

After my Edge browser updated to 128.0.2739.42, I have a problem where a tab's content gets replaced with BREAKPOINT_STATUS.

I'm a software developer making a web application and have been trying to find any connection between my code and the Edge browser bug.  It wasn't a problem until the upgrade to 128.0.2739.42 and the same site works in Firefox 129.0.2 (64-bit), Chrome 127.0.6533.122.  Google Chrome started showing a similar error message after updating Google Chrome to Version 128.0.6613.85 (Official Build) (64-bit).

 

One of my crashes had the following information in case you connect my comments.

If both Microsoft Edge and Google Chrome incorporated changes to the V8 JavaScript engine in the last week or 2, changes to the V8 JavaScript engine are what I would suspect to cause these bugs to both Edge 128.0.2739.42 and Google Chrome 128.0.6613.85 (Official Build) (64-bit).

Setting StartupboostEnabled to 1 seems to solve the problem.
