Introducing Workspaces in Edge | New feature
Workspaces you can create multiple Workspaces in Edge, have tabs in each of them, and when you close all Edge windows and open Edge again, you still have your workspaces, it's like a combination of tabs set aside + tab groups + pinned tabs experimental feature in canary, probably CFR. works really well so farEdge Workspaces preview for consumer accounts now available
Today, we’re excited to announce that the preview of Edge Workspaces for consumer accounts is now available! At Ignite 2022, we announced Edge Workspaces, the multiplayer browsing experience that lets you organize projects in separate, customizable browser windows which can be easily shared with others. Collaborators in a workspace share the same set of tabs so they can easily stay in sync and browse together. Previously, Edge Workspaces was only available as an enterprise public preview, but today we’re expanding that preview for anyone who wants to try it out at home on your own, or with friends and family. Preview details: You will need to be signed into Microsoft Edge 111.0.1661.51 (or higher) on a PC with your Microsoft account to join the preview (macOS preview availability targeted for early April 2023). You will get five invites to send to friends and family to join the preview with you. We’re starting with a limited group of users to get feedback and will continue to roll out the preview to more users through the spring. Click here to sign up for the Edge Workspaces Consumer Preview. Please submit feedback using the thumbs up or down prompt in the Edge Workspaces menu, or through the feedback tool in Microsoft Edge.
[SOLVED] Can't login on Edge anymore! (Login and Sync issue)
UPDATE 10 APRIL: Finally got a hold on https://support.microsoft.com/, initiated a live chat with support, and they had to install Install Quick Assist (Install Quick Assist - Microsoft Support) and they had to enter my PC and check what was wrong. They had no idea what was happening at the time (this all happened a few weeks ago - sorry for the late reply ut I had a lot of work delayed due to this error) and reinstalled Windows = issue solved. The following day however, windows asked me to update again and the issue returned ahahahaha but I removed it, and then the following system updates didn't carry that sign in issue anymore. Thank you all for your help and support during these VERY STRESSFUL DAYS! Hope the issue got solved for everyone! ____________________________________________________________ UPDATE 25TH - 4:52 GMT: - Run every possible workaround thanks to comments on my Microsoft Community thread and here (Tech) (Thank you everyone!) - Can't get pass the edge login pop-up => can't sync and have access to workspaces; - Already reported twice on Alt + Shift + I (with screen recording video and photos); - No 3rd party antivirus issue; - Some people on the Community post were able to surpass this by uninstalling KB5035853 - but I don't have it; - Using Windows 10 Home version 22H2, with Edge version: 123.0.2420.53 (64 bits) [also tried on Edge Beta version: 123.0.2420.53, but uninstalled it for now] ____________________________________________________________ UPDATE: 22nd OF MARCH: There was already some suggestions left here (https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoftedge/forum/all/cant-login-on-edge-anymore-sync-issue/6433b1dc-0f99-401f-86e6-90b36c7f2d34but it didn't work. Anyone? Please? _______ original message posted on 20th March _______ Already hit restore on windows' applications and restarted my pc, but every time I open Microsoft Edge now, on the top right corner it says my account is not logged in. And when I try to do it, the pop-up window says it's loading and then just turns to all white. Anyone can help me please? Don't want to lose my favourites, passwords and workspaces ;_; 1) already deleted all cookies 2) already confirmed if it was an issue with the Wi-Fi 3) already hit «repair» twice on the program 4) already tried to add a new account (didn't work cause the issue with the popup to login is the same) 5) already disabled all extensions and tried to login again after that 6) my account is not blocked - in fact I can login on Microsoft with it on my phone and website (otherwise I wouldn't be able to post this question). The issue is only with logging in on the Edge browser. 7) already deleted and reinstalled Edge. And yes, I restarted my pc every time I tried something. What else can I do? I need to access my Edge Workspaces!
Edge Workspaces error V114
I'm having an issue when selecting the workspaces menu it will "Error: Unable to load workspaces" How do I troubleshoot this issue? I need this resolved and functional as MS has enabled by default and it has rolled out to all users. I was expecting to be able to test this feature before enabling by GPO.Collections VS Workspaces | two different philosophies of saving tabs
Collections and Favorites (of all these tabs I want all of them) The idea of these is that you want to save a set of tabs outside the normal opening and closing of tabs so that they are sort of safe or protected from losing them. Collections differs from favorites in that the tabs are not so important individually and can be saved on mass. An important aspect is that tab saving is somewhat permanent, removing tabs has to be done manually. Workspaces and Tab Set Aside (of all these tabs I want at least one of them) The Idea of workspaces and tab set aside is that you cannot be bothered to know what tabs are important and which are not at the moment and want to "set them aside" for now. No tab is important enough to have a permanent safe place but at least one of them is probably important. Tabs can be added and (more importantly) removed on a whim without manually removing it from its group (just closing a tab) please do not use one of these as a replacement of the other. While technically both "save tabs" they are completely opposite in their use.
Edge Linux: Collections and Workspaces
Hey y'all, I use Edge Dev on both Linux (at home) and Windows (at work). I started using Collections recently, and I was upset to find it doesn't work on Edge Linux (yes, my packages are up to date). Although I haven't tried Workspaces yet, it's not working either on Linux. Even if you enable it, it doesn't show up. I can see that the tab expands, but the button doesn't appear. With Collections, enabling has no effect at all. Is this a known bug, or it just doesn't work on Edge Linux yet? Ubuntu 22.04.2 LTS x86_64. Version 115.0.1851.0 (Official build) dev (64-bit).Edge Workspaces sync BUGS
Hello First of all, I think that Workspaces in Edge is a very useful feature! Edge also has vertical tabs, which makes it the best tool for researchers using hundreds of tabs. I think other browsers can learn from this. With Workspaces, I can move windows I don’t currently use aside and open them again when needed without loading to RAM. Other browsers lack this feature, so I moved to Edge from Chrome. Edge is now my main tool for ongoing online research. However, after some months of use, I see that there are bugs that make me frustrated. With Workspaces, Edge is slow, it freezes, fails to synchronize, and reverts changes. 1. It does not update tabs and moves new tabs to the end. Let’s say that I have opened tabs: New Tab, facebook.com, A, B, C, D, E Later, I open links in new tabs from New Tab, Facebook, and A and leave them open. The tabs are: New Tab, msn.com/F, facebook.com, G, A, A2, B, C, D, E After some time, Workspaces synchronize, there is a short or longer Edge freeze. Then I see tabs are reorganized and F, G, H moved and changed addresses. The tabs are now: New Tab, facebook.com, A, B, C, D, E, New Tab, l.facebook.com/l.php?u=G, A2 It looks like Workspaces never update opened tabs when there was redirection through New Tab or l.facebook.com/l.php?u= or any other redirection on other websites. It only stores the first address it sees. When I refresh these tabs to see the description and go to the proper addresses, it still reverts it back! After I organize the order properly, it sometimes stays or is reverted back! This is frustrating when you need order and proper descriptions! 2. It is terribly slow, especially after opening another Workspace. I also encountered long freezes of Edge when opening another Workspace window or at random, probably when it synchronizes (a red dot appears next to the workspace name). Sometimes I have to wait 5 minutes, sometimes 15 minutes, sometimes I’m losing patience! I have plenty of PC power (12-core Ryzen 3900X, 32GB RAM, Samsung SSD 970 EVO Plus 1TB) and when I check Process Hacker, I see that Edge isn’t using 100% of CPU, but still is frozen. I noticed that when it’s frozen, there are around 200 disk writes, fast changing, 9MB/s total: C:\Users\me\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Edge\User Data\Default\Sync Data\LevelDB\256443.ldb ... ( edge_workspace_disk.xls ) When LevelDB writes stop, Edge is unfrozen. I’ve given msedge.exe processes high priority, but it doesn’t solve anything. I noticed this on previous versions starting from 122. I use Stable and Beta (to have two separate profiles) on PC and laptop. I waited hoping it will be solved, but nothing changed. It's possible that developers only tested Workspaces with a limited number of tabs and not with power users like myself, who manage 10 workspaces with 200-600 tabs in each. The consistent unreliability suggests there may be unresolved bugs present in each version. I examined the LOG.old file in the Sync Data>LevelDB folders of each browser and noticed that when a freeze occurs, there is a specific behavior logged: 2024/06/12-13:14:19.485 1a570 Generated table #365187@0: 40283 keys, 2109396 bytes 2024/06/12-13:14:19.485 1a570 Compacted 8@0 + 1@1 files => 2109396 bytes 2024/06/12-13:14:19.488 1a570 compacted to: files[ 4 6 7 0 0 0 0 ] 2024/06/12-13:14:19.489 1a570 Delete type=2 #365171 2024/06/12-13:14:19.489 1a570 Delete type=2 #365172 2024/06/12-13:14:19.489 1a570 Delete type=2 #365174 2024/06/12-13:14:19.489 1a570 Delete type=2 #365176 2024/06/12-13:14:19.489 1a570 Delete type=2 #365178 2024/06/12-13:14:19.489 1a570 Delete type=2 #365180 2024/06/12-13:14:19.489 1a570 Delete type=2 #365182 2024/06/12-13:14:19.489 1a570 Delete type=2 #365184 2024/06/12-13:14:19.489 1a570 Delete type=2 #365186 2024/06/12-13:14:19.491 179a0 Level-0 table #365197: started 2024/06/12-13:14:19.492 1a0a0 Current memtable full; waiting... 2024/06/12-13:14:19.500 179a0 Level-0 table #365197: 467718 bytes OK 2024/06/12-13:14:19.503 179a0 Delete type=0 #365194 2024/06/12-13:14:19.504 1a570 Level-0 table #365199: started 2024/06/12-13:14:19.505 1a0a0 Current memtable full; waiting... 2024/06/12-13:14:19.511 1a570 Level-0 table #365199: 467718 bytes OK 2024/06/12-13:14:19.514 1a570 Delete type=0 #365196 2024/06/12-13:14:19.515 179a0 Level-0 table #365201: started 2024/06/12-13:14:19.516 1a0a0 Current memtable full; waiting... 2024/06/12-13:14:19.524 179a0 Level-0 table #365201: 467718 bytes OK 2024/06/12-13:14:19.530 179a0 Delete type=0 #365198 2024/06/12-13:14:19.530 1a570 Level-0 table #365203: started 2024/06/12-13:14:19.531 1a0a0 Current memtable full; waiting... 2024/06/12-13:14:19.539 1a570 Level-0 table #365203: 467718 bytes OK 2024/06/12-13:14:19.542 1a570 Delete type=0 #365200 2024/06/12-13:14:19.542 179a0 Compacting 8@0 + 1@1 files 2024/06/12-13:14:19.556 179a0 Level-0 table #365206: started 2024/06/12-13:14:19.564 179a0 Level-0 table #365206: 467718 bytes OK 2024/06/12-13:14:19.568 179a0 Delete type=0 #365202 2024/06/12-13:14:19.572 179a0 Level-0 table #365208: started 2024/06/12-13:14:19.581 179a0 Level-0 table #365208: 467718 bytes OK 2024/06/12-13:14:19.584 179a0 Delete type=0 #365205 2024/06/12-13:14:19.588 179a0 Level-0 table #365210: started 2024/06/12-13:14:19.596 179a0 Level-0 table #365210: 467718 bytes OK 2024/06/12-13:14:19.600 179a0 Delete type=0 #365207 2024/06/12-13:14:19.604 179a0 Level-0 table #365212: started 2024/06/12-13:14:19.611 179a0 Level-0 table #365212: 467718 bytes OK 2024/06/12-13:14:19.615 179a0 Delete type=0 #365209 2024/06/12-13:14:19.620 1a0a0 Too many L0 files; waiting... 3. Workspaces sometimes stop syncing randomly and without notification. Occasionally, I notice a mismatch in the workspace between the PC and the laptop I use. If I close the workspace without checking, I will loose the tabs opened since the last sync! There's no notification, I must check if everything is synced or manually compare the opened tabs in the same workspace and then open them manually. After arranging them in the original order, I return to bug #1, which causes a mess when Edge moves tabs around. 4. Issues with Accessing Workspaces. This issue has occurred to me several times and is common among many users: "Error: Unable to load workspaces." Edge Workspaces error V114 - Microsoft Community Hub I tried many workarounds, sometimes they worked, yet they are not ideal and a definitive solution remains elusive. Now please tell me that Workspaces aren't still in beta phase. Workspaces are generally excellent tool, but in their current state of development, they are just a joke not worth the frustration and risk of data loss.
Powershell command to configure Automatic Accept / Decline in Calendar on Outlook for Workspaces
Hi, I am trying to create some desks using Outlook Workspaces in Room Finder. I have looked around online and don't seem to be able to find a command that will set the Automatic Accept / Decline in the Calendar so that the desk's cannot be double booked. Currently I only have 2 set up on a 365 Test Tenant and 1 of them is able to be double booked as I cannot set this without logging into the Outlook account online and setting in manually (The other desk I set manually by logging in). I have around 20/30 desks to set up in Room Finder so doing this manually would be very time consuming and being able to set them through Powershell would make my life a lot easier. Does anyone know of a command for Powershell that is able to do this?
Specific workspace crashes Edge (only 14 tabs)
One specific workspace refuses to open up successfully. Instead, it crashes my whole Edge (Dev). I've tried almost every tip out there - disabling all extensions, repairing Edge, restarting Edge and laptop. Also tried in stable and Canary builds. Anyone any ideas on how I might recover the workspace or at least see the tabs I had saved in there so I can recreate it? UPDATE: have just managed to open the workspace in BETA channel (again, crashes in DEV and Canary although DEV has been fine with this workspace until now or at least the last week or so when I must have when I must have last opened it). Thanks.
