How to permanently disable 'Turn off developer mode extensions' popup in Edge?
Hello everyone, I am currently running Windows Insider Preview (Build 26200) and I use Microsoft Edge as my primary browser. For my daily workflow, I need to keep Developer Mode permanently active because I run multiple local/unpacked extensions. Every single time the browser starts, I am greeted by the annoying popup: "Turn off developer mode extensions? Extensions are running in developer mode...". I've tried every advanced workaround available: modifying shortcuts with '--disable-features', tinkering with registry keys under 'Policies\Microsoft\Edge' (like ExtensionDeveloperModeSettings and ExtensionInstallAllowlist), but recent updates seem to have completely blocked these workarounds on the stable channel. Moving to Edge Dev or Canary shouldn't be the only solution just to avoid a startup prompt. Why can't Microsoft give us a simple, legitimate Registry Toggle to say "Yes, I know what I'm doing, stop asking me every day"? Is anyone else experiencing this frustration on recent builds, and has anyone found a clean way to whitelist local extensions without enterprise formatting errors? Thanks, André
Edge sync failing on desktop
Hi! Edge sync on my PC (Edge 156.0.4314.56, Windows, personal Microsoft account) gets stuck in "Initializing" every time I restart the browser. Signing out and back in fixes it, but only until I restart again. In edge://sync-internals, the encryption key downloads fine after signing in, but after a restart "Has Keystore Key" goes back to false and Edge never requests the key again, so sync never starts, and it's actually very annoying. I noticed it on October 29 and have already sent feedback through Alt+Shift+I. Is anyone else seeing this, or is there a fix that doesn't require signing out every time?
TypeError: Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'media_size')
Since version 153.0.4234.48 (Official build) (64-bit) was released and installed on my machine on 9/18/2026 I've been getting the following error while using Edge to debug a Web Application in Visual Studio 2022: TypeError: Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'media_size') Thead: edge://print StackTrace: at ei.updateSettingsValues (edge://print/index.js:5:91848) at ir.onSelectedDestinationCapReady (edge://print/index.js:3935:3913) at Object.handleChange (edge://print/index.js:3935:175) at or.notify (edge://print/index.js:1:20564) at Kr.notify (edge://print/index.js:1:20736) at Ae.updateDestination (edge://print/index.js:5:51222) at s (edge://print/index.js:5:53037) at Ae.onCapabilitiesSet (edge://print/index.js:5:53089) Source modules: edge://print/index.js c7754cdafbaf1eb70a049a157e46719b4bd6bd79117bb1ad6fc57a38b51bca24 I thought it had to do with the print JavaScript code I was doing, but any page I try to print from the "..." Print menu options does the same thing. The error doesn't occur in Firefox and appears to be caught and ignored in Chrome.
【Sync Issue】Edge Sync Stuck on “Setting up sync” on All PCs for One Microsoft Account
English Version Problem Description Microsoft Edge sync is stuck on “Setting up sync” and never completes. The issue appears to be associated with one specific Microsoft account. I have tested multiple devices and accounts, and the results consistently point to an account-specific issue rather than a problem with a particular PC. Troubleshooting Results Same account, multiple PCs: The same account cannot complete Edge sync on multiple different PCs. It remains stuck on “Setting up sync.” Different accounts, same PC: When I sign in with another Microsoft account on the same PC, Edge sync works normally. Same account, mobile device: Sync works normally on the mobile version of Edge using the affected account. Consistent results: The problem follows the same account across multiple PCs, while other accounts sync normally on the same computers. Affected account: mailto:email address removed for privacy reasons Request for Assistance Could this issue be related to the account's server-side sync status, account configuration, or sync data? Is there a way for Microsoft Support to check the sync status of this account or reset its server-side sync state if necessary? Since I have already tested multiple PCs and different accounts, I would appreciate assistance in investigating a possible account-specific sync issue. Thank you for your help! 中文版本 问题描述： 我的 Microsoft Edge 账号同步功能出现异常，登录后一直显示“正在设置同步”，无法正常完成同步。 目前已通过多组测试确认，问题似乎与特定账号有关，而不是某一台电脑或单一设备的配置问题。 已确认的测试结果： 同一账号，不同 PC： 在多台不同的 PC 上登录同一个账号，均无法完成同步，一直停留在“正在设置同步”。 同一 PC，不同账号： 在出现问题的同一台 PC 上切换到其他 Microsoft 账号，Edge 同步功能可以正常使用。 同一账号，手机端： 该账号在手机端可以正常同步。 问题具有一致性： 目前测试结果表明，异常始终跟随同一个账号出现。 出现问题的账号： mailto:email address removed for privacy reasons 希望获得的帮助： 请问这种情况是否可能与账号的同步服务状态、服务器端配置或账号同步数据异常有关？ 是否有办法检查该账号的同步状态，或者重置账号在服务器端的同步状态？ 我已经进行了跨设备和跨账号测试，希望微软技术支持人员能够协助进一步排查账号层面的问题。 感谢帮助！Edge Sync Persistent Failure
Subject: Edge Sync Persistent Failure: "Our services aren't available" on syncreset page and Sync Engine stuck on "Initializing" Hi everyone, I’m seeking urgent help regarding a persistent Microsoft Edge sync issue that has lasted for several days across 5 different devices (4 Windows PCs and 1 iOS device). The Symptoms: Sync Engine Deadlock: On all my Windows devices, the edge://sync-internals page shows the Transport State as "Initializing" or "Backed off". The Total Entries often drop to 0, or it shows Network error (ERR_CONNECTION_CLOSED). Server-Side Lockdown: I am unable to access the Edge sync reset page (https://edge.microsoft.com/syncreset) from ANY browser or ANY network environment (including mobile data and different VPN nodes). It consistently returns: "Our services aren't available. We're working to restore all services as soon as possible. Please check back soon." Question: Since the syncreset page is unavailable globally for my account, it seems to be a back-end identity/gateway issue rather than a local client error. Has anyone else encountered this "Services aren't available" error on the reset page recently? Is there a way to force a server-side sync container refresh when the official reset tool is down?
400 Robux reward disappeared after my redemption was declined – anyone else?
Hi everyone, I’m really confused and frustrated right now. I spent about 5 months earning 6,750 Microsoft Rewards points and redeemed them for the 400 Robux digital code on March 2, 2026. The order was marked as “Declined,” and my points were returned. However, after that, the 400 Robux option completely disappeared from my rewards dashboard. Now only the 800 and 1000 Robux options are available. I earned all my points fairly and followed the program rules. The 400 Robux reward was available at the time I redeemed it, so I don’t understand why it was declined and then removed. Has this happened to anyone else? Does this usually mean it’s out of stock? Does it come back? Is there any way support can manually allow redemption? I’m just trying to redeem what I worked toward. Any advice would really help.
Edge Password Manager Suggests Saved Passwords Across Different Subdomains
Description: Microsoft Edge suggests saved credentials from a.example.com when I focus a password field on b.example.com. These are separate websites with different authentication systems. I expect saved credentials to be matched against the exact hostname by default, rather than being suggested across sibling subdomains. Expected behavior: Credentials saved for a.example.com should not be suggested on b.example.com by default. Users should be able to configure strict hostname matching while retaining password autofill for each site. Feature request: Please provide an option to disable cross-subdomain credential suggestions in Microsoft Edge Password Manager.PWAs fail to launch on my WoA (Arm64) environment
For the past few months—coinciding roughly with an Edge Dev 153.0.4224.0 — PWAs have stopped launching on my Surface Pro 11th Gen (Arm64). When I click a PWA icon pinned to the taskbar, the progress cursor appears briefly, but nothing else happens. Clicking "Open" within the Edge Dev app management screen also yields no response. The only exception is Figma: if I open it in browser mode and click a link within the application, it successfully launches in PWA mode. PWAs appear to work without any issues in the retail version of Edge. I have already tried a repair installation of Edge Dev, but it did not resolve the problem. I have submitted feedback directly through the Feedback Hub and built-in feedback feature in Edge Dev, but the issue remains unresolved after several months. Is this problem unique to my specific setup?Microsoft Edge Workspaces deleted/hidden after update.
All my workspaces in Edge are hidden and/or are deleted. I updated my windows yesterday night (the restart also updated Edge which was pending) and noticed this issue this morning. I had 10+ workspaces and none of them are here to be found. Tried restarting the browser but no luck there.
