Edge's new icon is pixelated
Thanks for your reply HotCakeX
Visual effects are already set to "Best Appearence" and everything in my Graphics control panel is fine. This issue is only related to the new Edge and the rest of icons appear perfectly fine.
- Oh okay, well we tested it anyway 🙂
HotCakeX Check this out, by opening the file location of Edge (AppData\Local\Microsoft\Edge SxS\Application) and creating a shortcut of it on the desktop and then pinning it on the taskbar, the icon will be perfect with sharp edges. However, clicking on it to open the browser will create another icon of Edge that is less quality and doesn't have the same sharp edges. I don't know why Edge doesn't open from the good icon. ☹ As for YouTube, I don't know what's the problem but it looks fine when it is on the desktop. However, once it's pinned on the taskbar, it will look bad.
The picture below shows the two icons and the difference between them. Icon A is the good one and clicking on it will open the browser in icon B which is the bad one.
- Nice, that's very useful info, i hope developers see this and fix it. Try sending it using smiley feedback button too.
