Now if you go to full screen mode, by either pressing F11 on keyboard or this button you will see the tabs and address bar in a drop down fashion, just like in Edge classic. to do that, first you have to be on the latest version of Edge insider Canary which is Version 80.0.335.0 (Official build) canary (64-bit) then you have to go to: edge://flags/ and enable this flag Enable Fullscreen Dropdown Drops down browser frame during browser fullscreen. – Windows #edge-enable-shy-ui That's it. it was requested multiple times on the forum and I was looking for this functionality as well. Google chrome (even the latest canary version) still doesn't have this useful functionality.28KViews6likes33Comments[solved] Why can't we use Edge://Flags on Edge Android?
Update: we can access Edge://flags on Edge Android now Edge for Android is based on Chromium, so why can't we access the Chromium flags? I tried Edge://flags , Chrome://flags , about://flags . none of them worked why Edge on Android doesn't let user access the flags to modify the settings?25KViews6likes8CommentsAmbient Authentication has been added to Edge for InPrivate and Guest sessions
Microsoft Edge Version 82.0.442.0 (Official build) canary (64-bit) the 2 new flags edge://flags/ Enable Ambient Authentication in InPrivate mode Enables ambient authentication in InPrivate mode. This flag may be overriden by policies. – Mac, Windows #enable-ambient-authentication-in-incognitoEnabled Enable Ambient Authentication in Guest session Enables ambient authentication in Guest session. This flag may be overriden by policies. – Mac, Windows #enable-ambient-authentication-in-guest-session If I'm right, it's supposed to facilitate sign-ins while in InPrivate mode or browsing in Guest session. trying to sign in to my Microsoft account or Office 365 account in either of those modes, I didn't notice any difference. so any further info about these flags and how they exactly work is appreciated, thank youSolved18KViews0likes2CommentsEdge now has new Accent color themes

Hi there, I've been sending reports about this issue in "Feedback" of Microsoft Edge DAILY for a YEAR now ! Because of the following issues that they keep increasing with every new major update of Edge... And YES I send the diagnostic data with every feedback.. and NO it's not an issue of my Windows because this is happening on several machines with several Windows versions, and it only happens when I'm turning on "Auto Dark Mode for Web Contents" from edge://flags/ If I turn it off everything goes back to normal, but also the dark mode completely goes away! So this is related to the #enable-force-dark from the flags, don't send me steps of how to fix my Windows or how to reset Edge... The main issue is that "Auto Dark Mode for Web Contents" inverts the colors of A LOT of unrelated stuff in almost EVERY-SINGLE-WEBSTIE !!! Like logos, avatars, profile pics, emojis, some parts of the web design and even some text colors and more!! Which makes these stuff either VERY hard to see/understand OR it makes them completely invisible! 🤦🏻:male_sign: Below are some screenshots of "some" of the issues.. these aren't everything I found, these are just a few examples that I gathered to show you how bad is it.. 1- Many things in frontapp.com / app.frontapp.com like logos and emojis 2- Twitter's emojis and some of the profile pics in there 3- Lots of forums.. actually almost any forum anywhere! Enabling and forcing dark mode and all I see is WHITENESS ! and no words are visible!!! 4- Amazon... 5- DELL... 6- Disney+... 7- Frame.io video previews and almost all video previous from every website! (This started to happen since Edge v102, it was bad .. now it's worse) 8- YouTube white banners in top and bottom when you move the mouse the seek bar pops up.. (Full Screen) YouTube when you are not in full screen there is a white banner in the bottom.. YouTube seek preview if that pic/scene is dark (inverted colors) 9- LG Website (And everything like it including Amazon) 10- Nvidia.. 11- TechSpot 12- Even Your OWN SETTINGS PAGE !! I mean look at this pics carefully... does any color make any sense here?! And all these issues are nothing compared to the WHITE FLASH that blinds me for a few seconds when I start Edge!!!!! I'm using DARK MODE for everything in Edge, WHY THE HELL AM I GETTING A WHITE FLASH THAT ALMOST BLINDS ME THEN???!!!! I mean.. do you even test your stuff and changes ??? Do you test "Auto Dark Mode for Web Contents" with every major update you do ??? Because with every major update things gets worse NOT BETTER! Which means either you don't test or you don't care! 🤷🏻:male_sign: I just had a surgery for my eyes a couple of months ago and I use DARK MODE for everything I have because anything bright hurts MY EYES before and after the surgery... WE ARE NOT USING DARK MODE BECAUSE IT'S COOL, WE ARE USING IT FOR OUR EYES!! SO STOP IGNORING IT !!! These issues have been there AND INCREASING for more than a year now! And again, it's getting worse with every major update of Edge... and again, the screenshots above are just a few examples! The inverted colors are in every-single website!!! And please don't tell me to fix my Windows or Edge because as I said this is happening on every single machine with every single Windows I've tested.... And each machine/Edge has different apps and no extensions.. You guys turn on "Auto Dark Mode for Web Contents" and you will see these disastrous issues everywhere that you don't test.. so this option needs to be fixed/optimized.. and don't forget about the terrible useless white flash at the start.... So... when are these issues going to be fixed??13KViews2likes9CommentsWhat do these flags to exactly? [XPS and GDI printing]
I found these information so far https://mspoweruser.com/google-chrome-uses-xps-print-api/ https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/printdocs/about-xps-print-api https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/printdocs/gdi-printing but I can see no difference in Edge insider latest version with those flags enabled and disabled Version 81.0.375.0 (Official build) canary (64-bit)6KViews0likes0CommentsCan i please get some explanation and information about the things written in the Local State file?
The file is located here: %localappdata%/Microsoft\Edge SxS\User Data for Edge canary can be viewed from browser too: edge://local-state/ some of them are obvious like this "browser": { "browser_build_version": "81.0.387.0", "enabled_labs_experiments": which show which flags are enabled. but then i don't understand what these are for: "experimentation_and_configuration_service_control": 2, "external_config_domain_actions": { "idl_override": { "applications": [ { "applied_policy": "ExposePrefixedEME", "domain": "netflix.com" }, { "applied_policy": "ExposePrefixedEME", "domain": "music.amazon.com" }, { "applied_policy": "ExposePrefixedEME", "domain": "music.amazon.de" }, { "applied_policy": "ExposePrefixedEME", "domain": "sling.com" }, { "applied_policy": "ExposePrefixedEME", "domain": "openidconnectweb.azurewebsites.net" } ], "policies": [ { "name": "ExposePrefixedEME", "type": "PrefixedEme" } ], "version": 1 } I'd appreciate if anyone can shed some light on it.Solved5.5KViews0likes5CommentsShow which option is enabled/disabled by default in edge:flags in the new Edge
Instead of showing "default" value, actually tell us what default means. what are the defaults? does it mean an option is "enabled" or does it mean it's "disabled". it's hard to work with them when you don't know what their current value is set on. right now almost 90% of the flags are set to default and only 10% (approx) actually tell us whether they're currently enabled or disabled.4.8KViews13likes4Comments
