Re: Dev channel update to 80.0.320.3 is live
My CPU usage has skyrocketed again with Version 80.0.320.5 (Official build) Dev (64-bit) on MacOS 10.15.1. The last time this happened, someone said to disable some security feature in the Edge settings, but I can't remember what or where. I submitted feedback (which still doesn't allow me to attach screenshots) and I was "idle" at 150% or higher. With 5 tabs open right now, I'm getting between 225% and 280%. Idle Wake Up is the highest of any app (except kernal_task) at 70-80. I might have to switch back to Safari or Chrome for a bit. 😞2.4KViews0likes3CommentsRe: Dev channel update to 79.0.294.1 is live
HotCakeX "I'd like a dedicated update button as well." What exactly do you mean by this? You want to be able to request it or do you want to be able to stop it? I only ask because, like Chrome itself, if you go to the About Microsoft Edge menu item, it will check for the most recent update and download if there is one. It's the default action in Chrome and I assume it is in Edge as well.7.1KViews0likes1CommentRe: Dev channel update to 79.0.294.1 is live
I can't use the smiley face icon or menu to Send Feedback. Clicking on either will crash Edge. UPDATE: It seems to be working now. Not sure what was causing the crash issue, but it was a fresh install on a (practically) brand new MacBook Pro running Catalina. Edge was installed after the Catalina update. The high CPU usage and fan seems to mostly come into play when a video is playing in chrome (including autoroll ads on news sites), but I've not narrowed it down entirely.8.6KViews1like2Comments
