MicrosoftDev channel update to 76.0.176.1 is live
Greetings insiders! Today we released build 76.0.176.1 to the Microsoft Edge Dev Channel. Although it’s only been a short time since the last update to the Dev Channel, we still have some fixes and improvements that are notable enough to mention:
- Fixed an issue where the whole window sometimes goes blank or black when playing a video.
- Fixed an issue where certain webpages hang as soon as they load.
- Fixed an issue where the toggle to sync favorites is disabled even though the master sync toggle is turned on.
- Fixed an issue where a “Microsoft Edge stopped working” dialog sometimes appears even though Edge is still running.
- Fixed an issue where the wrong account picture is sometimes used when a user signs in with multiple accounts.
- Fixed an issue where video control popups are cut off if they’re near the edge of the page.
- Fixed an issue where video control buttons may overlap each other on small videos.
- Fixed an issue where entries on the history page get cut off when the window is at a narrow width.
- Increased the height of the rows in the address bar dropdown.
- Fixed an issue where the first run experience didn’t render properly.
Once again, thank you so much for being an insider and for all the great feedback you’ve been sending us.

Could you guys look into fixing the bug where if there is media open, edge would display msedge.exe on the volume control? It is kind of annoying and if I hover my mouse over it will stay there even longer...
If you don't want to use Windows' media controls to control media content in Edge, you can disable it by going to edge://flags, searching "media", then disabling both "Media Session Service" and "Hardware Media Key Handling".
Ummm...I think new edge should add a cortana lyrics for everyone.
sorry about my terrible English
We use a case management system called Nilex (Nilex.se). in Chrome I can resize columns by dragging the handles, see pic. In Edgium Dev I can not. Isnt this supposed the work the same since its based on Chromium?
Any word on notifications? They don't seem to work at all in Edge Dev. The only case I managed to get them to work was in Google Calendar. When enabling notifications for the first time, Calendar sends you a test notification to tell you how they will appear, but it never appears anywhere else.
My guess is that notifications only work when the website listening for the notification is open, which is not how it works in Chrome, where the notification is sent regardless as to whether even a Chrome window is open
- Web notifications do require the browser to be open. These are notifications done through a web worker.
Push notifications (service worker) in original Edge do not require the browser to be open. However, I believe Chrome and now new Edge do require the browser to be open in order to have notifications display.
I hope the team fixes that issue, it is one of those simpler said than done sort of things since they need to hook into different plumbing.Chris Love I've noticed that Chrome does only give me YouTube and Gmail notifications when open also. I actually really need to turn off the YT ones as they are really annoying.
Chrome notifications also don't go into Action Centre so don't respect the Quiet Hours setting, I need to check but I assume MS Edge does or will respect that setting on Windows 10 now/soon?
Does anyone have issues with links not opening with Windows Mail client?
Since the last update to the Dev channel Mail is giving me "Unable to open [url]". If I change the default browser to Edge (non-insider) I can open links in Mail. Switching back to Edge Dev the error comes back.
- Other than them taking longer than they should to open and once in a while I do have to close and reopen an email to get the link to work, BUT, the open and close to get link to work has happened even with old Edge.... It is something in the windows mail client I'd say as this has been a problem I've dealt with for a long time....

- "Fixed an issue where certain webpages hang as soon as they load."
Using MS CRM Dynamics. When opening a client (or any other type) record, a blank page us displayed until page is manually refreshed (f5 or Ctrl R).
David Rubino I just got this error.
David Rubino video playback on most sites, especially twitter, youtube and Facebook doesn't work consistently for me. I installed the Dev browser with a fresh install of windows since Edge was giving me so many issues. The web page crashing and page "hanging" that I experienced in Edge, have all been repaired. Now I cannot play videos in Edge Dev. Videos playback is fine in Chrome and Firefox. I just cant figure out why they wont play consistently in Edge or Edge Dev. sometimes refreshing works sometimes it doesn't.
David Rubino will Mira Cast support come to MS Edge (Chromium). My LG WebOS Tv is not displayed in the "More Tools >> Cast Media to Device" menu. Are we going to get stuck with chrome cast?
