Version 124.0.2438.2 (Official build) dev (64-bit) On sites where you can select use device theme (like youtube), Edge uses the light theme by default, although in Ubuntu I use the dark theme. This is not a Chromium bug because they fixed it a long time ago: https://issues.chromium.org/issues/40642550#comment176 I can confirm that Google Chrome detects the theme correctly in Ubuntu.390Views0likes0CommentsMicrosoft Edge Add-ons: NEW features to improve extension discoverability
Hello Insider Community, We are constantly working on improving the Microsoft Edge Add-ons user experience. We are thrilled to announce new improvements to the Microsoft Edge Add-ons website that makes it easier for users to discover new extensions. Collections* & Categories now show the user region’s trending extensions as “Top Edge Add-ons” User Feedback #1: Categories in Edge Add-ons are useful to find extensions for specific jobs to be done. But these categories are not locale-specific, and the order of curated extensions are generic. New Feature #1: Users will now be able to see a geo-specific order of listing within each Edge Add-ons category. The ordering within each extension category will now be powered by our AI recommendation engine to display popular and relevant extensions for each locale / country / geo. For example, here is the how the “Developer Tools” Edge Add-ons category shows up in different locales: China India USA Category: Developer Tools User Feedback #2: Collections on the Edge Add-ons site are helpful to find a curated list of extensions for a specific task, but the order of the extensions displayed in collections is not geo-specific. New Feature #2: We improved our algorithm to show more relevant extensions to our users for a specific region on certain Edge Add-ons collections*. Now, users will be able to see the top extensions within certain collections, based on their popularity in the respective locale / country / geo. For example, here is the how the “Have fun with Microsoft Edge” and “Go window shopping” Edge Add-ons collections show up in different locales: China India USA Collections: Have fun with Microsoft Edge & Go window shopping *This feature update is available only for the following collections on the Microsoft Edge Add-ons homepage - Trending, Have fun with Microsoft Edge, Go window shopping, Connect with friends, Stay informed, Picture perfect, Accessibility tools, Maximize your productivity and More add-ons. Auto-complete search suggestions on Edge Add-ons website User Feedback #3: The suggestions appearing under the search box while entering the keywords on Edge Add-ons site does not populate the region’s trending search keywords as suggestions. New Feature #3: The suggestions under the search box of the Edge Add-ons website while entering the keywords to find an add-on is now automated. It considers the trending search keywords and provides users with instant and complete suggestion results based on the user region. Below is the auto complete suggestion for a user in India after entering “I” in the search box of store. For example, here is how the auto-complete suggestion populates trending searches after entering “i” in different locales: China(with locale as English) India USA Search-box auto-complete suggestions These feature updates will make it simpler for our users to find popular add-ons for their region and get started with enhancing their Edge browser experience further. Do let us know what you think of these improvements by leaving a comment below. We would love to hear about your experience, suggestions, and feedback.

Hey insiders!! Wouldn't it be great if Microsoft edge pdf viewer would have the option to add a text box feature. There's a pen feature but the writing doesn't go smooth unless you have any stylus. If I want to add notes or any writings over a pdf, it doesn't go quite well with the pen feature.13KViews0likes4CommentsExtension loads late in Edge
I noticed in my Edge browser (ver. 87.0.664.75) that upon browser startup, the extensions loads late. But when I update my browser to version 88.0.705.50, it works fine and the extensions runs on startup. I would like to know what may caused this bug and what upgrade/fixes are made on the latest version that may have caused the fix on this bug? Thanks for answering!992Views0likes1Comment
