IE Mode on Edge Chromium - showmodaldialog
MSDN_Geek we recently made a fix for the showmodaldialog issue in the latest Canary. If you can test it there, it should work for you. That fix will eventually make its way to you when your version of Edge hits version 82. As for the STATUS_ACCESS_VIOLATION issue, are you running any Forcepoint software by any chance? We've got a known issue where having Forcepoint software installed will cause this to happen.
What channel of Edge are you seeing this behavior in? I'll definitely pass this info onto the team, but if you're seeing this in Beta or Stable, you should also try your scenario in Dev or Canary to see if it also happens there.
The issue is reproducible on the latest Edge Version 80.0.361.66 (Official build) (64-bit).
Issue:
To reproduce the issue, the user when moves to another window or uses Alt+Tab, and then comes to the modal-dialog window, the Modal-dialog window is no more visible. It take numerous tries and the short key Alt+Esc to find the Modal window.
This is causing user behavior impact and a blocker, before we release the Edge browser with compatibility to the users community.
Microsoft Edge Chromium Team, kindly help!

josh_bodner, can you help me confirm if the issue got fixed in v80 release? This will be helpful in rolling out to few of our internal users. The issue for the Modal dialog is not occurring on version Version 80.0.361.111 (Official build) (64-bit).
However the issue existed in the version 80.0.361.62 as reported earlier.
Regards,
josh_bodner, the Microsoft Edge version for our environment is Version 80.0.361.62 (Official build) (64-bit).
Can you help check and pass within your team? Also, the UAC bar configured at my side is: "Notify me only when apps try to make changes to my computer".
The dev/canary version are not working at my side, no website are getting opened, the error displayed is Error code: STATUS_ACCESS_VIOLATION.
