"If you can't stand the beta heat, get out of the beta fire?"
Mmmm, indeed. Except the issue is many people do not realize what betas are. Ergo, they don't expect 'problems', things missing, stuff that doesn't work or doesn't work correctly, cosmetics that are not right (colours, spacing, positioning, layouts, et al). Betas are not & will not be perfection. They will have flaws, snags & breakages. This is why we work on them. Back in the day they were not offered to the public. But, even the public must be aware that betas are unfinished works-in-progress... products Insiders are helping to Build to have a solid, safe & Globally appealing product to release in a non-beta form. There is another similar cliche - "Beta testing is not for the faint of heart."
Cheers,
Drew

It's quite the opposite. You should have someone help you with it. A good suggestions is go to Tips. It has most everything about Win10 in there for you and all in plain English plus, pictures & such. You can learn much there quickly to make using your wonderful OS easy for you.

IE is a thing of the past, leave it there. If you are not an Enterprise customer you do not need IE Mode. If one has to use IE for some reason it's in the OS, without any need for IE Mode or through another browser.
Cheers,
Drew

Somehow, these threads quickly devolve about topics not about this specific version. Which is fine perhaps, but that muddles the "regression discussion" or new bugs in this version only.
Maybe a self-serving comment: ...as this new 79.0.301.2 version has crashed 7x in one day here: no new extensions, no changed settings (except Strict -> Moderate trackers blocking). I can only remember Chromium Edge crashing ~4-6 weeks ago, and that was just twice.
edit: just saw your comment, @HotCakeX . Glad to hear they've fixed it already in Canary!

Geeez, sure glad mine is not doing anything like that. Suggest you remove Dev & go get a fresh download & install anew. Get it, again, HERE

@josh_bodner It's just here but Youtube isn't loading properly? Only the video shows and I can't maximize it or see comments or other content of the webpage. Also, not even the title of the video appears in the tab, only "YouTube".
I disabled Adblocks and other extensions as well, the problem persists. I'll have to redownload the browser? :\
Edit: I downloaded another version of the browser, the Beta, and the problem persists. So it's either a Youtube problem or an ISP problem?
Edit 2: yeah, it's youtube: https://downdetector.com/status/youtube/ hahahah

Except not needed since you have actual IE already in your OS.
除了不需要,因为您的操作系统中已有实际 IE

On a Mac and in the developer tools window, when I press the key "Cmd", the window shifts trough the panels.
It's unusable this build.
Is there any way I can revert to the previous one?

It's probably needed in China that's why he's asking for it..

That's right, cause it loads websites inside Edge UI but with IE engine, that's definitely more convenient
