*Updated* Dev channel build 77.0.211.3 is live

[#1]

@Elliot Kirk  Still having issues with extensions crashing, manly lastpass. 

LastPass Crash

It doesn't matter if we use Canary or Dev, it happens in both and has done since about the 3rd update.  Whilst I understand that these are test versions, it's still annoying as I use LastPass for everything, so testing suffers due to LastPass crashing and then locking me out and I have to jump through many hoops to log back in again.

It's not only LastPass, a couple of other extensions also crash. What is strange though is that the dev and Canary versions of Google Chrome do not have this issue. The extensions on Edge are from the Microsoft store. I tried the same ones from the google extension store and the same thing happens, so it doesn't seem to matter where they are acquired.

So far, this is the only issue I've found and I really love Edge (chromium) as it just seems much better than Chrome.

very good thank you, but i do not have  a mouse middle click

[#3]

Personally I Love this style of folder look... They actually look like folders and not some half done after thought design to represent a folder........

But, that is just my20censworth

There's a tile on the main landing page about dark mode, but can't seem to find the feature anywhere in settings. Am I missing something? @Elliot Kirk 

[#5]

Awesome on the latest features and behaviors. 

The biggest needs for our agency is SSO and for the ability to be able to digitally sign pdfs in Edge browser with piv/smartcards.  If this became an option to digitally sign pdfs in edge, then we would dump adobe dc/adobe reader in a heartbeat.   @Elliot Kirk 

[#6]

Dark mode is tied to the windows theme settings right now. So if you set the theme to dark, Edge will also use the dark theme. In the canary version, you can already switch between the light/dark theme directly in Edge.

[#7]

When can I use themes in the Google Web Store?

[#8]

@Elliot Kirk There is a bug with Netflix where it has extreme stutters with full screen. Hardware doesn't seem to matter.

Windows 10 Pro build 1809
CPU: Ryzen 5 2600
GPU: RX Vega 64
RAM: 32GB

[#9]

Thank you

[#10]

he probado el navegador en la mayoría de características y complementos hasta el momento no me ha dado falla alguna, consume poca ram y su interfaz es muy limpia y minimalista, seria bueno que en idiomas fuera un poco mas fácil configurar el idioma ya que hay usuarios no ta avanzados.

[#11]

I agree with others that the yellow folders don't look great on the bookmark bar. The previous non-colored folders looked really classy and now the yellow ones make it look like it's old/stale Google Chrome again. Would love to have control to change these!

[#12]

Any news about the independent dark mode option?

[#13]

Will the future dark mode look something like this, with the Microsoft Logo background also being dark? Coz that would be amazing. Good work so far.@Elliot Kirk 

[#14]

Somebody at MS would have to re-upload a new image/logo, right now it has a white background. That's not something you can change with CSS. This is the logo: https://gxcuf89792.i.lithium.com/html/assets/Content/Images/GlobalHeader/microsoft.png

[#15]

@Elliot Kirk Web Push notifications still don't work for us

[#16]

Thanks for the updates, things are looking great.  Especially the new folder icons!  I agree with everyone else praising the new icons; the new yellow color is so much better and looks great on the favorites bar.

[#17]

Just wanted to throw some love out to the dev team - I've been so impressed with this effort, I've already replaced Chrome as my primary browser. I really hope the stashed open tabs and the drawing controls remain, but everything else has been incredible and the resource use is head and shoulders above other browsers that I've historically used. Keep it up, folks!

Hello Insiders!  Today we released build 77.0.211.2 to the Microsoft Edge Developer channel.  We’ve got some new features, many of which you’ve seen over the past two weeks in Canary and have been eagerly waiting for in Dev.  We’ve also fixed quite a few reliability and behavior issues, the most significant of which include: 

• Enabled ability to automatically repair extensions by default.

In addition to this work, there has been a ton of work on coming features including enterprise management and IE-mode.  And of course, thanks to everybody for being an insider and sending us all of your great feedback and suggestions!

@Elliot Kirk 

This is not working...  As you can see one of the extensions I use as of today (7/11/2019) has crashed and did not "Automatically repair its self...

Had to manually click the "repair" option...

Hi @gabgb, I was mistaken.  The ReadAloud feature for PDFs is not in this week's Dev build.  I apologize for the confusion.

[#20]

Hi @Vu_chien, I apologize.  Read Aloud is not in this week's Developer channel update.  I must have mixed up my Canary and Dev windows when I was testing this feature.  It does work on today's Canary build (I retested just to make sure :-D).  Read Aloud on Reading View should be in next week's Developer channel update.

Thanks, and sorry again!

@Elliot Kirk  Great work folks, thanks for all the effort.  Good to see you continue to make progress towards being able to sign in using a corporate O365 account - any idea when this will be available please as it's the big improvement we're waiting for.

[#22]

@Elliot Kirk Why is the HTTPS:// suddenly gone? It is kind of annoying when I need to change the URL and it suddenly pops back up.

[#23]

wt. that's because that image itself is using a white background and not transparent. i assume you're using some extension that's making the website itself dark when it isn't.

ditto. why? that's something i've always hated about chrome's ui with this. makes no sense that when you copy the url it actually copies the hidden https://, when my eyes tell me it should only be copying url without the https://. 

[#25]

@Dennis5mile if you middle-click on a link, it opens in a new tab, no questions asked. Very helpful for me. (Note that some mice don't have this button)

[#26]

Or Ctrl - click. Same result.

[#27]

In other browsers, there's an option in Settings to launch all new links in new tabs. I've never enabled it. But when I do want to open a link in a new tab, I just hold down Ctrl while left clicking. Works perfect.

[#28]

An idea... instead of having to re-open all of the links and refresh them, etc every hour. How about this:

Open a 2nd instance of EdgeDev and open up all 8-10 sites in separate tabs. Then have Edge set to 'Continue where you left off.' Which would mean those 8-10 tabs would open and reload a new version of them (refresh). Does this help?

That setting is under Settings, On Startup.

Alternatively, under the same setting, you can set it to open all 8-10 sites every time you open Edge. So when that hour comes each day, close Edge and then reopen it showing all of the tabs you need.

[#29]

Does this include the "search web for image" feature in Canary?
I've been waiting for that :beaming_face_with_smiling_eyes:

[#30]

@Will Y Well, I think they should either KEEP it there or REMOVE it entirely.

[#31]

77.0.211.3 just installed, what changed?

[#32]

Don't know. I've got the same build. May be security patch.

[#33]

@Speednet 

Maybe we should be allowed to customize the color of our folders or leave them on 'transparent' which would be how they were before?

[#34]

@Elliot Kirk  Is there any plan for adding the Set aside tabs feature back into Edge? As an enterprise business Admin, several unique Edge features are what drove user adoption. This feature, in particular, is a favorite among our users. I fear if it is not included in the Chromium version of Edge, user adoption will plummet. This is such a powerful tool for users who need to stay organized with their web research and web-based applications. 

[#35]

@Elliot Kirk When do you think we'll be able to see Fluent Design in the form of acrylic added? 

[#36]

@Elliot Kirk 

Testing out IE mode in our enterprise environment and it's working great. With the Legacy Browser Support addon it's seamless already. Great work.

Looking forward to the production version so we can ditch IE/UWP Edge ;)

[#37]

Thank you very much@Elliot Kirk 

[#38]

@ArkansasBen77  Good thank you

[#39]

@Elliot KirkGreat work on the updates.  However, it seems that some extensions like LastPass are not working on the new build.  I also tried EnPass and it doesn't appear to work either.  Maybe something to look in to? 

[#40]

@briancuster I would try removing and re-installing. I have no issues running LastPass or uBlock or other extensions.

[#41]

love it

[#42]

@Elliot Kirk thank you for your answer! Will be wating for the feature. Thx

[#43]

@Elliot Kirk 

Can you please fix Netflix casting to chromecast? Two builds ago it worked fine, but ever since you updated it, it no longer casts correctly. If I play anything from Netflix on Chromecast all I get is a black screen on the remote screen. 

[#44]

Nice find, I would like to try this - what is the flag called?

[#45]

@Elliot Kirk - The "Paste and search" icon in the context menu is missing. This is what happens from the beginning. As well as some other icons in the context menu, such as "Select all" or "Past as plain text".

[#46]

For the yellow icon and the omitting of http, http and www in URL, it's just a glitch when merging Chromium upstream source, and has already been fixed in Canary.

[#47]

@Joel Yang Oh no, you're saying the yellow folder color is not staying?

[#48]

@Speednet That's right, the yellow folder icon is from Chromium, and has been corrected. In fact, the folder icon has regressed to Chromium one before, but was fixed in Canary before going into Dev.

[#49]

@Joel Yang That's terrible news, but thanks for the heads-up.  The white icons are horrendous, making them extremely difficult to distinguish from generic "page" icons. 

[#50]

@MarsMas you can also hold down control when clicking any link to open it in a new tab. (this works in every browser I am aware of
