Notification badges for PWAs pinned to the taskbar
If possible, it would be good to see notification badges on taskbar for the pinned website like Twitter and other social media platforms we already get some sort of hint when there is notification available on Twitter on Edge favorites toolbar, (using Edge canary 83 at the moment) notice the small red dot. it disappears when I go to Twitter and check my notifications or mark them as read. i think this is great and needs to be visible on the Taskbar pinned items too.New Feature: Launch Taskbar Pinning Wizard in Edge insider
There is a new feature added in Edge insider Version 81.0.367.0 (Official build) canary (64-bit) called "Taskbar Pinning Wizard" you can find it from the ellipsis menu => more tools Edge will generate suggestions based on your usage Then offer some useful websites from Microsoft to you, you can either choose them or ignore and proceed to next step You're all set the icons get added to your Taskbar And Start Menu You will be able to uninstall them whenever you want from the Apps page Right-click on any apps to see these optionsProblem/Bug with PWAs keeping Edge tabs open on relaunch
I added Spotify web player as a PWA (Progressive Web App) because that's what it is, a full featured Spotify player on the web. whenever I want to listen to music, I only click on the Spotify icon on the taskbar and treat it as an standalone app, I don't touch Edge browser. now the problem is, when the Spotify app (PWA) is open, Edge browser remembers all open tabs when I close Edge window. so instead of loading a new tab page for me on launch, when I click on the Edge browser icon, it remembers and brings back all of the tabs I had open when I last time closed Edge window. and this happens while this option is set in the settings: You see this shouldn't happen. Edge should detect there is a PWA running somewhere else and be smart enough about it not to confuse it with a normal Edge browser window. the way it is now, is annoying and totally ruins the whole point of using PWAs. now I have to close all of the open tabs one by one (usually 15 tabs) so that Edge won't reopen them again when I launch it next time. hope this Bug gets fixed.

PWA icon?
Hi, What does Edge use as a icon, when creating a PWA from a website? We created some PWA's of our websites for testing, but all of the PWA's just show a letter on a gray background. In Android, I can move a test website to the Home Screen, and it will show the correct icon. So I know the manifest & image is loading correctly from the index.html. I created some other PWA's from random sites, and they seem to work. So I'm a bit of a loss here what Edge is looking for, and where the image needs to be. cheers! robLove the new optional tab strip for PWAs
Edge Version 88.0.692.0 (Official build) dev (64-bit) the flag for this new feature is: edge://flags/#enable-desktop-pwas-tab-strip you will be asked if you want tab strip for your PWA upon installation These are the kind of prompts you receive if the website offers the install option on the address bar. if a website does not offer the install option in the address bar, and you try to install it using: (ellipsis menu => Apps => install this site as an app) then the prompt will look like this, a 3rd option will be offered.Expose each Edge's tab and PWAs sounds to Windows sound control separately
Expose each Edge's tab and PWAs sounds to Windows sound control separately so we can set different volume level for each of them When I install YouTube, Spotify web player or similar sites as a PWA (progressive web app) in Edge, or use them in different tabs, I want to be able to control each of their volumes separately using Windows sound control or the audio widget of Xbox Game bar, for more convenience and control over the sound we hear. currently, everything is shown and combined under "Edge". you can also upvote in feedback hub: https://aka.ms/AAckqfhProblem with PWA icons on Start menu on Edge dev
When installing a website, such as Instagram, as PWA in Edge dev (Version 88.0.685.3), the Instagram icon appears in the apps list of Start menu, at the top under "recently added" list (not pinned yet). when you drag & drop it on the Start menu to Pin it, it will have a small centered icon. but if you go to edge://apps/ and Pin Instagram's icon from there then Instagram's icon will be in normal big size in the Start menu Left side is big and normal, right side is very small pea-sized icon created by drag & drop. Instagram is one of the websites used as example, the same thing happens to Twitter, YouTube, Bing etc (tried all of them). see if you can reproduce it and send feedback through browser (preferably with "recreate my problem") Windows 10 20H2 latest versionProject; Bugs, Problems, and Issues
Howdy Y'all, I am generally highly adaptable and can make the most out of almost any situation. I am a long time Primavera user and I am trying extremely hard not to lose my "stuff" while making the switch to Project/PWA/Project Desktop (*rant for another post). I have been a Project Scheduler for about 15 years now working on medium/large capital (construction) projects in Oil & Gas, Chemical, Manufacturing, and Steel industries. They all manage projects more or less the same way. I have used Project over the years off and on for small 1-off projects and struggled through it. Now that I have been using Project for almost 2 years I still get aggravated, agitated, and angry because of the bugs and problems with the software. I am sure about now you are thinking "this guy needs some training on the software". I decided to go to Microsoft directly to get answers, but they don't have classical support for Project apparently and this is the closest thing I have found to "Support" so here I am y'all. The issue that originally brought me here I managed to solve on my own while typing this rant. My Summary Tasks wouldn't (?)summarize the dates of the tasks below them when added. Yes they were auto-scheduled. See picture below. The resolution... not just saving it, but closing it to was required (and reopening obviously) to make Summary Tasks... summarize tasks. See <subject>. I am pray that this community can help me keep my sanity in the coming days. I really don't want to be defeated by this program.
