Hello, anyone else who has the problem with Edge 87.0.664.57 (Stable/Beta)?
If we select a text on a page and do a right click on that Edge crashes.

We are using Win10 1809 in an Enterprise environment with a lot of GPOs.
I found out (because of the context menu) that the "DefaultSearchProviderEnabled" is responsible for the crash. In our environment this is set to 0. As soon as I set it to 1 Edge context menu works fine again.
It was working in the last version 87.0.664.52 we had.
Feedback is disabled by GPO but if I enable it and want to start it Edge crashes too!

found out that Dev build 88.0.705.15 and Canary 89.0.726.0 have the same behaviour

it's good you found out what was causing it.
I'm not 100% sure but maybe this is happening because of the recent undocumented changes in stable builds.

for everyone who has the same problem: it can be fixed with the GPO
Allow default search provider context menu search access
to be set to 0:
"If you set this policy to disabled the search context menu item that relies on your default search provider and sidebar search will not be available."
This is a hint to the undocumented change too.
