edge beta and developer beta

hi

 

i ran into identical issues with both versions with twin exact issues except one thing edge beta ran into the issue within two hours and the developr nearl 6 hours later hit the same exact issue identical right down the pixel

 

running browser and vlc media player both froze stalled couldnt close task masnager wouldnt open settings would open neither betas would allow me to minimise and aqllow me to then maximise to break the bug clicking on the taskbar start button power button or the desktop yeilded zero respons as did alt delete or esc or tab as i tried the frozen game tricks to break the log.

 

so here ius what i then did 

 

restart re open all windows and see if it occurs again yes it did so 

 

edge beta 

 

uninstalled results everything worked as per usual

 

edge developer

 

uninstalled results everything worked as per usual

 

the points i want to address before the question s i know to follow both edge versions were installed separately from each other i didnt install both at the identical time

 

yes i tried the bundled media pl;ayer in windows after problems with vlc same issues as above and yes i downloasded a new media player any plasyer and into the exact same issue 

 

floags on both betas i disabled everything remotely listing media in header or susequent sub text information same issues as above

 

default programs swapped out for each media player and replasced withj the new test subject

 

default browser swapping out public for each beta in  in turn

 

and yes checked each beta for updates both updated and current

 

nividia drivers checked and current

 

all drivers checked in devcice manager all current

 

clean all history and conducted repairs and emptied the history passwords cache from public and betas so they were fresh and clean

 

i had no opther recent software installed within the last few months sao i am assuming that the conflict is the results of something in both betas that caused identical issues first impression of issue media players stopped playing other issues right after

 

i used the almost identical flags on all the same edge browsers apart fdrom a few that werent available on the public version enabled and disabled same issues

 

here is where my learned software and coding troubleshooting logical knopw how runs out as i never pursued a coding career lol

 

but i thoiught you guys should know and also have the following tests i ran to give you as much info and headstart as i could.

 

hope this is of great assistance because i like both betas much better than the public 

 

here is wishing you all well and stay safe in the face of the globasl pandemic 

 

and wishing lots of beautiful clear weather from sunny london

  • Welcome to MTC, big post thank you! But of course it's great to pass this suggestion to the Edge Feedback Center where directly developers will develop it! do you also give your opinions there?
