Edge Bar is not available in Windows 10

I have the latest microsoft edge version installed (103.0.1264.44).
However, I still cannot find option to activate edge bar in this system (Windows 10)

I have another device with Windows 11. With the same version of MS edge, the edge bar is enabled by default.
How can I fix this in Windows 10?
Try to search on several forums, but cannot get solution for this.
Thanks.

    You’re not missing anything. Edge Bar is not supported on Windows 10.

    Microsoft made Edge Bar a Windows 11–only feature, even though the Edge browser version number is the same on both systems. That’s why it appears by default on your Windows 11 device but has no option in Windows 10.

    There’s no setting, flag, or registry tweak to enable it on Windows 10.

    Summary:

    Edge Bar works only on Windows 11. On Windows 10, it’s simply not available and can’t be enabled.

    Microsoft designed Edge Bar as a Windows 11 feature, and it is tightly integrated into the OS interface.

    Please ensure your Windows 10 system version is 21H1 or later, as the Edge Bar feature is primarily designed for Windows 11 and is only conditionally available in higher versions of Windows 10.
