Edge for Linux/ARM64
I know there was announcements at Ignite 2019 that Edge would come to Linux at some point. My guess is that meant builds for x86_64. I would like to ask that builds be made for ARM64 as well. With ARM64 for Windows being put out there at some point in the near future, it would be nice to see all bases covered.
Are there any fix for hardware acceleration issues?
I am no longer using Edge because on Windows there are some issues that appear to be related to hardware acceleration, bugging what the browser renders, and have to resize it's window to fix. It happens on specific websites and mostly while gaming. On MacOS M1/M4 doesn't happens. On iOS 18/26 there were some issues related to scrolling on some websites (I think related to ads) . To fix, have to go back or close the tab. I really like Edge, but these issues made me migrate to Firefox (no issues), using only Edge on the business computer.. Will there be a fix for chromium based applications or by Edge it self some day?
Edge not recognizing Xbox controllers (for Xbox cloud gaming) anymore
This problem is now present since around 6 months or longer, some update in Edge totally broke gaming controller support. Problem is reported by countless people on here too: https://www.reddit.com/r/xcloud/comments/zit4tg/edge_not_recognising_controller/ https://www.reddit.com/r/xcloud/comments/zfrucy/edge_update_issue/ https://www.reddit.com/r/xcloud/comments/zwejbj/xbox_360_wireless_controller_not_working_in_xbox/ https://www.reddit.com/r/xcloud/comments/zwtekr/controller_doesnt_work_on_microsoft_edge/ and so on. Would be nice if someone would look into this and fix it. Can be easily tested on: https://gamepad-tester.com/ Xbox 360 controller with wireless adapter connected to Windows 11 pc. Edge: doesnt work Chrome: works Firefox: works The problem seems to be related to Xbox 360 controllers. I have tested a Xbox One controller via Bluetooth, that one is recognized in Edge (also Chrome and Firefox of course). Xbox 360 controller via Windows wireless USB adapter, not recognized in Edge (working in Chrome and Firefox).MS Edge on Android has a bottom address bar glitch
When the address bar is moved to the bottom, there's a strange gap present between the bar itself and the omnibox (I guess that's what it's called). Also, when bottom bar placement is selected, the search suggestions appear in reversed order - best suggestions should be displayed at the end of the list, instead they are shown at the top and the list has to be scrolled through. This is Edge 141.03537.99 on Galaxy S23 with Android 16.

Hi Microsoft friends, Has Microsoft solved the nvlddmkm.sys which may be related to the Update.Download Failure Error 0x800f0841 which should update the build to the latest Windows 11 version? My temporary fix after a grueling days of lost productivity is to disable the Nvidia driver in Device Manager but of course this cause the resolution to be wrong coz' the basic drivers lack the native screen resolution and graphical tasks are slow and games can't be played. What could the fix be for both? Thank you in advance. God bless the Microsoft Masterace.
The official place to report bugs
I am a user of the beta version of Edge on Linux. From time to time, I encounter bugs that I’d like to report. After some searching, this forum is the closest I have found to a bug tracker. So I was wondering whether there’s a dedicated place for reporting bugs or should I just post here?Mica issues again (title bar + context menus)
Weird bug again - in both Stable/Dev the title bar mica effects are not working, but the dropdown & context menu (three dot settings) is. In Canary, the title bar mica effect *is* working, but the dropdown/context menu is not (solid white). I reported via feedback as well. Canary: Dev/Stable:
Camera and Mic Site Permissions

Microsoft Edge/MSN Ads on videos has forced me to stop using it
I cannot believe that Microsoft Edge's home page (MSN) now inserts commercial ads into most every video article it posts. As I try to watch the article, ads now pop up, frequently more than one. It forces me to either sit through watching the ads to read some mundane article or close the video and get off the browser. I am soooo sick of advertising trying to get me to spend money on some stupid product. I have now found myself closing the browser and not using Edge/MSN most of the time now. What a waste. At least Firefox and Google have not started doing this (yet). Has anyone else found this to be true?Go Links on Edge Mobile
Dear community members, We use Intune managed computer and Zscaler that delivers DNS Search Domain. When user type a https://go/links in Edge browser, it automatically appends the FQDN to the address bar to become https://go.mycompanydomain.com/links. It is a quite common practice for Enterprise to provide convenience to access internal shortened URLs. With Intune managed mobile (also has Zscaler), can we achieve the same goal for Edge mobile? For the mobile use case, it is less of typing the go links directly in the browser. Because there are a lot of go links shared in Email and Chats from communications and newsletters, when user click them in Outlook or Teams on the phone, it will open in Edge. I am hoping when Edge opens these links, it automatically appends the search domain like on computers. I have looked up all Intune device and Edge documentation, chatted with three different LLMs, couldn't figure out a solution. All ideas are welcome! Thanks. Best regards,Microsoft Edge PDF Reader - signature validation warning for official signatures
Since the last edge update we are running into the following issue, which triggers support tickets on our side. It seems that the edge internal PDF Reader now supports validation of digital PDF signatures. This new feature however is incomplete and causes a lot of confusion for edge users. "Official" signatures are labeled as "Unknown Signature" and "The validity of the signature is still unknown": "Official signatures" means qualified signatures from members of the EUTL - the European trust list as defined in ETSI TS 119 612 („Trusted Lists“): [...] the European Commission publishes a central list with links to the locations where the national trusted lists are published as notified by Member States. This central list, called the List Of Trusted Lists (LOTL), is available in both a human readable format and in a format suitable for automated (machine) processing XML. Parts of the edge PDF reader seems to come from *dobe itself which adds additional confusion since in their products (*dobe reader, acrobat etc) the signatures are correctly verified. They support this list for several years now (next to their own AATL list). I tried to find out whether this feature is 'work-in-progress' or it is a bug however the last published roadmap is quite old and doesn't give helpful information regarding this aspect. So my question is: Is full support of PDF signature validation including support of the EUTL planned and if so when?Roadmap for PDF reader in Microsoft Edge
Over the course of last year, we worked hard on building a powerful PDF reader that offers compatibility, reliability, and security for you and your organization. The feedback we received from you from the Edge Insider builds has been really encouraging, and here are some of the most asked features that are available today, across Windows, Mac, and Linux: Reading and Navigation: Table of Contents enables you to view the contents of PDF files and navigate to different parts seamlessly, improving your productivity. Page view enables you to view the PDF file in a book format, with the option to view the cover page separately. Caret mode lets you navigate through your PDF files and select text directly through your keyboard by enabling Caret mode by pressing F7. Accessibility support including keyboard accessibility, screen reader support, and capability to view PDFs in high contrast mode. Fill basic PDF forms directly in the browser. (Please note that XFA forms are currently not supported) Annotation tools: Ink on PDF files with colors and stroke width of your choice. Text notes can be added quickly to text in the file to jot down thoughts for easy reference later. Create highlights with Highlight mode enables you to draw attention to parts of the PDF that you find interesting. With Highlight mode, you can now create highlights directly by selecting text, as you would do with a highlighter and paper. In-context annotations opens a quick menu right when you select text on PDF files, enabling you to take quick actions as highlight, copy without losing context. Enterprise and Education: Read Aloud is now supported on PDF documents. You can use it either to retain focus while reading through it or to listen to PDF documents while multitasking! Dictionary and search through in-context menu keeps helps you understand the content and research better, while keeping you in context. Open Microsoft Information Protection (MIP) and Information Rights Management (IRM) protected PDFs and view permissions seamlessly within Microsoft Edge, without the need of any add-ins. MIP adds a layer of security to your documents. It ensures that only the users who have certain permissions such as view, copy, annotate can take those actions on the file. Hence, no matter where the document goes, the data of your organization remains secure. Viewing MIP files protected in other tenants: This will enable you to view the files protected in other organizations, or in other tenants in the organization. Certificate based Digital Signatures, which is currently under preview allows you to view and validate digital signatures present on PDF documents directly in the browser. Here are the features we’re currently working on: View recovery: On re-opening a PDF file, reach your last-read location easily. File preview of PDF files in File Explorer and Outlook Add text box annotations: Add text boxes to fill forms, or take notes on PDFs Validate Certificate based Digital Signatures: We’re currently working on adding support for signatures with long-term validity. Further down the line: Viewing labels of protected files Digital Signatures: Validating ETSI signatures Add Digital Signatures Accessibility improvements: Advanced capability to fill forms and navigate through a PDF document using screen readers. We are actively looking at feedback from you about the features you find important.

Hi there, I've been sending reports about this issue in "Feedback" of Microsoft Edge DAILY for a YEAR now ! Because of the following issues that they keep increasing with every new major update of Edge... And YES I send the diagnostic data with every feedback.. and NO it's not an issue of my Windows because this is happening on several machines with several Windows versions, and it only happens when I'm turning on "Auto Dark Mode for Web Contents" from edge://flags/ If I turn it off everything goes back to normal, but also the dark mode completely goes away! So this is related to the #enable-force-dark from the flags, don't send me steps of how to fix my Windows or how to reset Edge... The main issue is that "Auto Dark Mode for Web Contents" inverts the colors of A LOT of unrelated stuff in almost EVERY-SINGLE-WEBSTIE !!! Like logos, avatars, profile pics, emojis, some parts of the web design and even some text colors and more!! Which makes these stuff either VERY hard to see/understand OR it makes them completely invisible! 🤦🏻:male_sign: Below are some screenshots of "some" of the issues.. these aren't everything I found, these are just a few examples that I gathered to show you how bad is it.. 1- Many things in frontapp.com / app.frontapp.com like logos and emojis 2- Twitter's emojis and some of the profile pics in there 3- Lots of forums.. actually almost any forum anywhere! Enabling and forcing dark mode and all I see is WHITENESS ! and no words are visible!!! 4- Amazon... 5- DELL... 6- Disney+... 7- Frame.io video previews and almost all video previous from every website! (This started to happen since Edge v102, it was bad .. now it's worse) 8- YouTube white banners in top and bottom when you move the mouse the seek bar pops up.. (Full Screen) YouTube when you are not in full screen there is a white banner in the bottom.. YouTube seek preview if that pic/scene is dark (inverted colors) 9- LG Website (And everything like it including Amazon) 10- Nvidia.. 11- TechSpot 12- Even Your OWN SETTINGS PAGE !! I mean look at this pics carefully... does any color make any sense here?! And all these issues are nothing compared to the WHITE FLASH that blinds me for a few seconds when I start Edge!!!!! I'm using DARK MODE for everything in Edge, WHY THE HELL AM I GETTING A WHITE FLASH THAT ALMOST BLINDS ME THEN???!!!! I mean.. do you even test your stuff and changes ??? Do you test "Auto Dark Mode for Web Contents" with every major update you do ??? Because with every major update things gets worse NOT BETTER! Which means either you don't test or you don't care! 🤷🏻:male_sign: I just had a surgery for my eyes a couple of months ago and I use DARK MODE for everything I have because anything bright hurts MY EYES before and after the surgery... WE ARE NOT USING DARK MODE BECAUSE IT'S COOL, WE ARE USING IT FOR OUR EYES!! SO STOP IGNORING IT !!! These issues have been there AND INCREASING for more than a year now! And again, it's getting worse with every major update of Edge... and again, the screenshots above are just a few examples! The inverted colors are in every-single website!!! And please don't tell me to fix my Windows or Edge because as I said this is happening on every single machine with every single Windows I've tested.... And each machine/Edge has different apps and no extensions.. You guys turn on "Auto Dark Mode for Web Contents" and you will see these disastrous issues everywhere that you don't test.. so this option needs to be fixed/optimized.. and don't forget about the terrible useless white flash at the start.... So... when are these issues going to be fixed??Friend's redeemed store credit doesn't get added to account (Microsoft Rewards)
A friend of mine from Texas has been trying for a while to redeem points from the Microsoft Rewards program for store credit, mainly to buy a game she really wants to play, but she never gets the credit. She gets confirmation mail regarding the store credit, but she was never able to redeem the store credit. No code, no additional dollars added to her account, nothing. I never had this issue before, but I suppose it's simply because I'm from another country where the rewards program still allows you to redeem store credit through codes. In Texas, if I read it correctly, the store credit is supposed to be added to the account almost instantly, but it seems like the store credit is still pending. It doesn't help that it has to be spent in 3 months' time, and she had been attempting to redeem the store credit for so long that a lot of it may already be expired before she even properly receives it. She tried contacting support, but got little to nothing out of it. I'd like to get in touch with someone and see if this issue can be resolved. She is having it rough and I just can't stand there and be unable to help her. Can anyone help her (or perhaps us) out? I'd really appreciate it.On Facebook, I can't select a number of things
When I go into settings and try to change my password, Facebook asks me to select an account--Facebook or Instagram, and Edge won't let me select either of them. When I click on notifications, and bring up replies or likes on any of my posts, I can't select anything, including likes, and I'm forced to go to my profile page in order to interact. This works fine in Google Chrome.
Microsoft edge chromium deployment
Hi, As Microsoft will discontinue IE, therefore we are deploying Microsoft Edge in our organization. I have downloaded the MIS pack and ADMX files. I can push the package in my company but it is hard to find relevant GPOs. I am missing GPO to control Edge, like Zone settings, Set Local Intranet sites, Set Trusted Sites, Set Content off, remove Office 365 App Launcher button, set language, enable time and weather. I want to remove IE and replace by Edge. Can you please guide me how to achieve this? Thank you. Kind regards, DineshHave Secure Network (VPN) and AI Mode been removed in Edge 141.0.3537.85?
I recently updated to Edge version 141.0.3537.85 and noticed that two features I regularly use seem to have disappeared: The Secure Network (VPN) toggle is no longer visible under edge://settings/privacy/security, and I can't find any related flags. The AI assistant on the default page (Copilot or AI mode) is also missing. I'm not sure if this is a bug, a rollout change, or something specific to my setup. I haven't found other reports online, so I'm wondering if anyone else is experiencing this. These features were important to my workflow, especially the VPN and proxy support. If they've been intentionally removed, I’d appreciate some clarification or changelog reference. If it's a bug, I hope it's being tracked. Any insights or confirmations from other users or the Edge team would be helpful.
