Hello Insiders! Today we released build 77.0.211.3 to the Microsoft Edge Developer channel. We’ve got some new features, many of which you’ve seen over the past two weeks in Canary and have been eagerly waiting for in Dev. We’ve also fixed quite a few reliability and behavior issues, the most significant of which include:
We have added a single fix from to the .2 release, a fix to the Add Profile button so that it works by default even if you don't change the name of the profile.
New features and behavior:
Fixes for improved reliability:
Fixes for improved behavior:
In addition to this work, there has been a ton of work on coming features including enterprise management and IE-mode. And of course, thanks to everybody for being an insider and sending us all of your great feedback and suggestions!

because to me, the yellow folder looks dated. Like I said, it's not the end of the world, I just prefer the old folder icon.
I agree 100% with your second point. The "old" Edge looks so much better. The main/top part of the browser is not as tall, the URL bar is perfectly sized (the new one is HUGE), there are no Fluent elements etc. I absolutely love the new context menu design though (I believe this will be the default context menu design for the whole OS in the future).
Smooth scrolling in the old Edge is also the definition of perfection and thankfully, it's coming to the new Edge as well (scroll down a bit to the blue row): https://www.microsoftedgeinsider.com/en-us/welcome

When will you guys be working on the "my feed" section that appears when using the "informational layout" for new tabs?
I would like to request the ability to customize this section, similar to what google does, on a card by car basis, with no particular news aggregate set as default.

I just tested the SSO with Azure AD with one of my Enterprise Applications and it is prompting for a password. Are their any setting that need to be set for this to work?

Yellow folders are very welcome, they existed in the old Edge and it makes totally sense to have them here as well, old folders were too Chrome-esque, and the less this browser looks like a Google product, the better

@MarsMas You can also just ctrl + click on a favorite (at least in the toolbar) and the link will open in a new tab.

@Elliot Kirk Still having issues with extensions crashing, manly lastpass.
It doesn't matter if we use Canary or Dev, it happens in both and has done since about the 3rd update. Whilst I understand that these are test versions, it's still annoying as I use LastPass for everything, so testing suffers due to LastPass crashing and then locking me out and I have to jump through many hoops to log back in again.
It's not only LastPass, a couple of other extensions also crash. What is strange though is that the dev and Canary versions of Google Chrome do not have this issue. The extensions on Edge are from the Microsoft store. I tried the same ones from the google extension store and the same thing happens, so it doesn't seem to matter where they are acquired.
So far, this is the only issue I've found and I really love Edge (chromium) as it just seems much better than Chrome.

There's a tile on the main landing page about dark mode, but can't seem to find the feature anywhere in settings. Am I missing something? @Elliot Kirk

Awesome on the latest features and behaviors.
The biggest needs for our agency is SSO and for the ability to be able to digitally sign pdfs in Edge browser with piv/smartcards. If this became an option to digitally sign pdfs in edge, then we would dump adobe dc/adobe reader in a heartbeat. @Elliot Kirk
