@Dennis5mile @HotCakeX, we had a pretty good wind storm last night and some of us lost power, which threw a bit of a monkey wrench in our plans. We just pushed the button to publish the build. It should be live now. Thanks - Elliot

News feed is still completely broken in Dev Version 79.0.294.1. Is it still a bug or am I the individual facing the problem?
Please someone inform.
Thanks

I am having excessive cpu usage at startup. Besides edge becomes laggy while watching 1080p+ youtube video. Also it has the full screen open/close bug from chrome.

Still no option to directly open a downloading file (without first saving it)
All other MS browsers support this feature.

In the Sync settings I see all the grayed-out options (like syncing tabs and history) are gone. I hope this doesn't mean you're dropping the future rollout of those features. I'm counting on syncing history, tabs, settings, etc. at some future point, please tell me you're doing this.

Hi,
this is the developer's response to this:
"this is not a mistake. It is also not a change of plans. We are still working on bringing History sync, Extension sync, and Open Tab sync to our next version of Edge. We are cleaning up the UX in the meantime, as we have heard feedback that it is confusing to some people why the setting was greyed out."
