New Feature: Show suggestions from history, favorites and other data in omnibox (Address Bar)

[HotCakeX]

Microsoft Edge Version 83.0.471.0 (Official build) canary (64-bit)

Show me suggestions from history, favorites and other data on this device using my typed characters

edge://settings/search

To get that, first you need to enable this flag: edge://flags/

Enable local providers toggle

Enables toggle to control whether history and favorites suggestions are shown in the omnibox – Mac, Windows

#edge-local-providers-toggle

@HotCakeX I have been using this feature for almost 8 weeks? It was available as a flag, so finally they made it as an new option! Great!

Nope, I have the history of all the flags of previous Edge versions saved and this particular flag was only added in Version 83.0.471.0 (Official build) canary (64-bit)

@HotCakeX Nope, as I said I have been using it for over 8 weeks - check Omnibox flags

I've checked already. I'm talking about the flag, its exact name and the option it adds in edge://settings/search

none of them were available before.

Hi,
Kinda unrelated here, but do you know how do we hide the search bar? It is been marked as addressed in this week's Top Feedback...

I couldn't find it either that's why I asked, it's not even a controlled feature rollout at the moment

@HotCakeX Whom do I send a fruit basket for this feature? People have been asking google for this since about 2008, and have been ignored ever since because the chrome team apparently knows better https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=91378

Hi,

the primary way Edge developers receive suggestions/problems/feedbacks is through the feedback button on Edge browser, shortcuts: (Alt + Shift + i)

if you can't use it for some reason, you can use this: (Support for individuals)
