On my mac big sur on hotspot & regular wifi I am on the latest dev build released today (July) 27TH & even thouh updated I tred/check the about page and says

An error occurred. (Error code: 9) (Extra code: 0) on the about/update page

I tried uninstalling & same on fresh install

and same on the latest canary build (i tried canary to see if was dev build)

please help

[#3]

This is a known issue and the team is currently investigating, can you please submit feedback via the menu > Help and Feedback > Send Feedback with diagnostics and include the error code in the description so that it will be added to the investigation.

@LisaS Thanks for fixing the problem (STATUS_ACCESS_VIOLATION) . It's working fine !

[#5]

@LisaS As you can see in the screenshot, the text color and icon color of title bar may become red or another dark color. Since I use the dark mode, it's a little difficult for me to read the text and icons in these colors clearly. Even if I switch to light mode or default mode, the title bar still has the same problem. 

[#6]

@DaviKeng this issue could partially be solved by changing the theme of Edge.

[#7]

avif support?

AV1 has been supported for a while, what's the delay with image-AV1? pretty sure chromium has it working for like a year or longer already?

[#8]

Since the last Dev build, there has been white lines and/or borders around elements on web pages. Is there any way to turn this off?

[#9]

Thanks for your suggestion. Is there any recommended themes? I don't know which one could I choose to solve this problem temporarily. In the long run, I think it should be solved by MS, which may be better.

[#10]

@DaviKeng I would recommend “Dark & stormy", which is close to the dark theme.

[#11]

Alas, the stuttering-scrolling issue for PDF-files is still not solved in this new Edge Dev 105.0.1329.1. Edge Stable and Edge Beta (latest versions) fortunately do not have this issue, scrolling through a PDF is still smooth there.

[#12]

You can also try this theme too - https://microsoftedge.microsoft.com/addons/detail/complete-black-theme-for-/ghonbmojapihnfjnnmhijdjm...

It is the complete black theme and helps with the Red. Hopefully, they fix the default theme as this is just ugly.

[#13]

@LisaS after the update, text on tabs appears in RED font and is unusable, have to change to a custom theme to correct the issue.

[#14]

@LisaS Dark Mode without a theme is absolutely unusable, as the text in inactive tabs is black: 

It becomes white when the tab is active. 

[#15]

As others have said, the red text is extremely unpleasant and hard to read. I hope you can release a bug hotfix asap for this rather than keep it like this until whenever the next update is released.

[#16]

why is there red crap all over the browser now. do you even test this before you push?

[#17]

From my observation in Light mode, the red text on tab titles on appears on vertical tabs but not on horizontal tabs.

[#18]

That is correct, but the red loading circle also appears on horizontal tabs.

[#19]

Red is the placeholder color when a color is missing from the color table. That has been happening a lot recently when there's activity upstream that moves things around, and we haven't yet fixed it up on our side.

[#20]

not sure I understand.. why would you knowingly push a broken build into the dev channel?

this shouldn't have escaped canary into the dev build, surely.

its made the dev build unusable.
