Changelog

    Hello Insiders! Today we’re releasing build 85.0.552.1 to the Dev channel. Like last week, we’ve got a lot to talk about:

    First, we’ve got a small blog post highlighting the improvements in memory usage that Edge will have on the latest version of Windows 10 (version 2004): https://blogs.windows.com/msedgedev/2020/06/17/improving-memory-usage/.
    Next, we’ve got a recap of everything we shared at Build last month: https://blogs.windows.com/msedgedev/2020/06/18/icymi-recap-edge-build-2020/. There are lots of great videos there to check out!
    We also officially announced that users of Microsoft 365 Business Premium (formerly Microsoft 365 Business) now have access to enterprise sync services: https://blogs.windows.com/msedgedev/2020/06/23/enterprise-sync-microsoft-365-business-premium/. There’s also a link to instructions there for anybody having trouble getting it to work.
    For a little fun, we posted a small gift to ALL OF YOU to celebrate a big milestone we just hit: 10,000 forum members! To see what it is, check this out: https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/articles/free-swag-celebrating-our-microsoft-edge-insiders/m-....
    Finally, we’ve got our weekly Twitter roundup to check out: https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/discussions/this-just-in-june-22/m-p/1482098.

    As for all the browser-related changes this week:

    Added the ability to undo certain actions in Collections.
    Added the ability to reorder the extension icons on the toolbar using a keyboard shortcut (Alt + Shift + arrows).

    Added the ability to import certain settings and cookies from Internet Explorer.
    Added a management policy to Exempt Domain File Type Pairs From File Type Download Warnings. Note that Administrative Templates will come later.
    Added a management policy to control New Tab Page Allowed Background Types. Note that Administrative Templates will come later.
    Added a management policy to control pre-rendering of the new tab page. Note that administrative templates will come later.

    Added a feature to Kiosk Mode to close the browser when it’s idle (with the time limit being adjustable).
    Added an alert to the … menu of installed websites and apps when Edge has an update ready to be installed.

    Improved reliability:

    Fixed a crash when closing the browser after creating a new profile.
    Fixed an issue where opening a tab in IE mode sometimes crashes the browser.
    Fixed an issue where signing into the browser sometimes crashes the browser.
    Fixed an issue where moving a tab when it has the search sidebar open sometimes crashes the sidebar.
    Fixed an issue where attempting to print a PDF sometimes crashes the tab.
    Clicking links from external applications while Edge is waiting to restart to apply an update sometimes results in those links not loading properly.
    Fixed an issue where the Kindle reader website doesn’t load.
    Fixed an issue where attempting to share video, such as in a Microsoft Teams call, sometimes fails, and the recipient only sees a blank screen.
    Fixed an issue on Mac where the Sidebar Search option appears to be available but doesn’t do anything.
    Fixed an issue where pasting content into a Collection sometimes fails.
    Fixed an issue where pasting content into a text note in a Collection sometimes fails.

    Changed behavior:

    Changed the PDF reader to no longer prompt where to save an edited PDF every time it’s saved.
    Fixed an issue where data imported from other browsers during the first run experience sometimes isn’t deleted properly if the browser is closed before the first run experience is completed.
    Fixed an issue where the top border of the window can’t be used to resize it.
    Fixed an issue where the Pull To Refresh flag from upstream Chromium disappeared.
    Fixed an issue where clicking on the Switch button in the Guided Switch dialog sometimes does nothing.
    Fixed an issue where pinning an Edge shortcut to a specific profile or website to the Taskbar sometimes results in that shortcut not opening to the correct profile or website.
    Fixed an issue where pages sometimes try to translate into the same language they’re already in.
    Fixed an issue where pages are sometimes offered to be translated from random languages into the language they’re already in.
    Fixed an issue where browser profiles that aren’t signed in with work or school accounts sometimes incorrectly get Information Protection applied to them when another profile in the browser is signed in with a work or school account that has Information Protection applied to it.
    Fixed an issue where Immersive Reader is no longer available on certain webpages.
    Fixed an issue where the undo dialog when deleting a saved password from Settings doesn’t appear.
    Fixed an issue where the PDF toolbar sometimes doesn’t appear when it should.
    Improved the number of websites where Collections can retrieve an image for a website added to a Collection.
    Fixed an issue where the feedback dialog sometimes appears too big or cut off.
    Improved the performance of Edge updates that are manually triggered by viewing edge://settings/help.
    Improved the performance of clearing browsing data.
    Removed the Network Prediction setting.
    Removed the ability to search using the sidebar in PDF files because it is not functional.

    Known issues:

    Attempting to watch video in fullscreen will sometimes not work properly. Instead of showing the video fullscreen, it will blow up or zoom the video to the size of the browser window. This issue affects all Chromium-based browsers.
    Users of certain ad blocking extensions may experience playback errors on Youtube. As a workaround, temporarily disabling the extension should allow playback to proceed. See https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/articles/known-issue-adblock-causing-errors-on-youtube/m-p/14... for more details.
    Users of the Kaspersky Internet Suite who have the associated extension installed may sometimes see webpages like Gmail fail to load. This failure is due to the main Kaspersky software being out of date, and is thus fixed by making sure the latest version is installed.
    Some users are seeing favorites get duplicated after we made some previous fixes in that area. The most common way this is triggered is by installing the Stable channel of Edge and then signing into it with an account that has already signed into Edge before. Fixing this should be easier now that the deduplicator tool is available. However, we’ve also seen duplication happen when running the deduplicator on multiple machines before either machine has a chance to fully sync its changes, so while we wait for some of the fixes we’ve made to come to Stable, make sure to leave plenty of time in between runs of the deduplicator.
    After an initial fix for it recently, some users are still experiencing Edge windows becoming all black. Opening the Browser Task Manager (keyboard shortcut is shift + esc) and killing the GPU process usually fixes it. Note that this only appears to affect users with certain hardware and is most easily triggered by resizing an Edge window. For users with discrete GPUs, updating graphics drivers may help.
    Some users are seeing “wobbling” behavior when scrolling using trackpad gestures or touchscreens, where scrolling in one dimension also causes the page to subtly scroll back and forth in the other. Note that this only affects certain websites and seems to be worse on certain devices. This is most likely related to our ongoing work to bring scrolling back to parity with Edge Legacy’s behavior, so if this behavior is undesirable, you can temporarily turn it off by disabling the edge://flags/#edge-experimental-scrolling flag.
    There are some issues where users with multiple audio output devices sometimes don’t get any sound from Edge. In one case, Edge becomes muted in the Windows Volume Mixer and unmuting it fixes it. In another, restarting the browser fixes it.

    Fixed an issue where options to change the browser’s theme and zoom are missing from Settings.
    Fixed an issue where the website’s protocol (http://, https://, etc.) is hidden in the address bar and only appears when interacting with it. Note that this behavior can be restored via a flag if desired.

    Attempting to watch video in fullscreen will sometimes not work properly. Instead of showing the video fullscreen, it will blow up or zoom the video to the size of the browser window. A fix was recently identified and should be in next week’s Dev build.
    Users of certain ad blocking extensions may experience playback errors on Youtube. As a workaround, temporarily disabling the extension should allow playback to proceed. See https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/articles/known-issue-adblock-causing-errors-on-youtube/m-p/14... for more details.

    Fixed an issue where not all passwords are migrated from IE to Edge on versions of Windows older than 10.
    Fixed an issue where websites pinned to the Taskbar don’t have their badging when they’re supposed to. (The badging is the text/number that sometimes appears on shortcut to tell the number of unread messages, etc.)

    Users with certain hardware are seeing changes in scrolling behavior that are unintended. For example, pages scroll much faster than they used to. We’re currently investigating.
    Users of certain ad blocking extensions may experience playback errors on Youtube. As a workaround, temporarily disabling the extension should allow playback to proceed. See https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/articles/known-issue-adblock-causing-errors-on-youtube/m-p/14... for more details.

Changelog

    Added features:

    Added support for Dark Theme in default webpage form controls like dropdowns, calendars, etc.

    Enabled support for the Chromium management policy for a User Data Snapshot Retention Limit.

    Improved reliability:

    Fixed a crash when closing a window.
    Fixed a crash on browser shutdown.
    Fixed a crash when opening DirectInvoke programs.
    Fixed a crash when switching browser profiles.
    Fixed a crash when using Guided Switch to switch browser profiles.
    Fixed an issue where opening a PWA or installed website sometimes crashes the browser.
    Fixed a crash when closing the browser on versions of Windows older than Windows 10.
    Fixed an issue where some websites don’t load properly when Quiet Notifications are enabled. Note that this change restores regular notifications for affected sites.
    Fixed an issue where videos sometimes stop playing right after they start.
    Fixed an issue where creating a new Collection sometimes fails.

    Changed behavior:

    Fixed an issue where profile dialogs like for Guided Switch or Sign In sometimes don’t appear.
    Changed favorites links on the Favorites management page to open in a new tab instead of the current one.
    Fixed an issue on Windows Insider builds where Edge tabs don’t appear in the alt+tab list even when the Windows setting is enabled.
    Fixed an issue where suggestions that appear for URLs to visit when the typed URL doesn’t exist weren’t working.
    Fixed an issue where some parts of the Website Information popup are missing.

    Fixed an issue where going through the Collections First Run Experience creates an extra Collection.
    Fixed an issue where saving PDFs that are embedded in webpages sometimes results in the file being saved as an HTML file instead of a PDF.
    Fixed an issue where MsEdgeDriver fails to launch Edge when running inside a Windows docker container.

    Known issues:

    Certain websites like Discord currently aren’t loading. We’re working to get the fix integrated into our Canary branch.
    Mac users running the OS 11 preview (Big Sur) may have issues with all versions of Edge either crashing or not launching to begin with. We’ve identified the issue and are working to get it resolved before Big Sur is officially released.

    Some users are still running into an issue where all tabs and extensions immediately crash with a STATUS_INVALID_IMAGE_HASH error. The most common cause of this error is outdated security or antivirus software from vendors like Symantec, and in those cases, updating that software will fix it.
    Users of the Kaspersky Internet Suite who have the associated extension installed may sometimes see webpages like Gmail fail to load. This failure is due to the main Kaspersky software being out of date, and is thus fixed by making sure the latest version is installed.

This is most likely related to our ongoing work to bring scrolling back to parity with Edge Legacy’s behavior, so if this behavior is undesirable, you can temporarily turn it off by disabling the edge://flags/#edge-experimental-scrolling flag.
    There are some issues where users with multiple audio output devices sometimes don’t get any sound from Edge. In one case, Edge becomes muted in the Windows Volume Mixer and unmuting it fixes it. In another, restarting the browser fixes it.

Changelog

    Added features:

    Added dark theme support to sidebar Search.
    Rolled out support more broadly for new Kiosk Mode features like idle timeout and automatic download deletion via management policy.

    Fixed a crash when closing a window.
    Fixed a crash when choosing where to download a file.
    Fixed a crash on launch on Mac.

    Changed behavior:

    Improved favorites deduplication by preventing duplicates from being able to exist to begin with. Note that this only affects any favorites that are synced moving forward, and existing duplicates on devices must still be removed manually.
    Improved support for websites pinned to the Taskbar to show informational badges.
    Fixed an issue where smooth scrolling stops working.
    Fixed another cause of Youtube videos not entering fullscreen properly and instead zooming a lot or growing to the size of the whole window.

    Fixed an issue where file sharing using the Web Share API fails.

Changelog

    Added features:

    Rolled out Share, Copy, and Paste Settings more broadly.
    Extended formatted link copying capabilities to links copied from webpages.

    Improved reliability:

    Fixed a crash on startup due to sync.
    Fixed a crash when closing the browser while the Guided Switch dialog is open.
    Fixed an issue where clicking the IE logo next to the address bar in IE mode tabs crashes the browser.
    Fixed a crash when printing.
    Fixed a hang when using IE mode and loading pages in other tabs.
    Fixed an issue where sidebar Search sometimes fails.
    Fixed an issue where using Save As sometimes fails to save PDFs after they’ve been edited.

    Changed behavior:

    Fixed an issue where importing payment info from other browsers fails when Edge is set to not save payment info entered into webpages.
    Fixed an issue where the Jumplist sometimes is missing.
    Fixed an issue where Family Safety sometimes doesn’t work in InPrivate windows.
    Fixed an issue where Taskbar shortcuts sometimes don’t show the proper account picture.
    Fixed an issue where websites installed as apps sometimes don’t have the proper name in Windows.
    Fixed an issue where deleted search engines sometimes return after restarting the browser.
    Fixed an issue where exporting a Collection to OneNote sometimes doesn’t export all the images.
    Fixed an issue where shift+clicking in PDFs unselects any selected text instead of extending the selection.
    Fixed an issue where searching on the Extensions management page sometimes incorrectly shows a popup that an extension has been removed.
    Fixed an issue where the Translate popup sometimes shows the wrong language compared to what language the page has actually been translated to.
    Fixed an issue where Shy UI sometimes dismisses when it shouldn’t.
    Fixed an issue where the management policy to Configure On Premises Account Auto Sign In doesn’t work properly for some device configurations.
    Temporarily disabled Tab Groups.

    Known issues:

    Users of certain ad blocking extensions may experience playback errors on Youtube. As a workaround, temporarily disabling the extension should allow playback to proceed. See https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/articles/known-issue-adblock-causing-errors-on-youtube/m-p/14... for more details.
    Some users are still running into an issue where all tabs and extensions immediately crash with a STATUS_INVALID_IMAGE_HASH error. The most common cause of this error is outdated security or antivirus software from vendors like Symantec, and in those cases, updating that software will fix it.
    Users of the Kaspersky Internet Suite who have the associated extension installed may sometimes see webpages like Gmail fail to load. This failure is due to the main Kaspersky software being out of date, and is thus fixed by making sure the latest version is installed.
    Some users are seeing favorites get duplicated after we made some previous fixes in that area. The most common way this is triggered is by installing the Stable channel of Edge and then signing into it with an account that has already signed into Edge before. Fixing this should be easier now that the deduplicator tool is available. However, we’ve also seen duplication happen when running the deduplicator on multiple machines before either machine has a chance to fully sync its changes, so while we wait for some of the fixes we’ve made to come to Stable, make sure to leave plenty of time in between runs of the deduplicator.
    After an initial fix for it recently, some users are still experiencing Edge windows becoming all black. Opening the Browser Task Manager (keyboard shortcut is shift + esc) and killing the GPU process usually fixes it. Note that this only appears to affect users with certain hardware and is most easily triggered by resizing an Edge window. For users with discrete GPUs, updating graphics drivers may help.

    Known issues:

    Certain extensions such as the Microsoft Editor extension don’t work on Linux. As soon as they’re installed, they crash and are disabled. We’re currently investigating.
    Users of certain ad blocking extensions may experience playback errors on Youtube. As a workaround, temporarily disabling the extension should allow playback to proceed. See https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/articles/known-issue-adblock-causing-errors-on-youtube/m-p/14... for more details.
    Some users are still running into an issue where all tabs and extensions immediately crash with a STATUS_INVALID_IMAGE_HASH error. The most common cause of this error is outdated security or antivirus software from vendors like Symantec, and in those cases, updating that software will fix it.
    Users of the Kaspersky Internet Suite who have the associated extension installed may sometimes see webpages like Gmail fail to load. This failure is due to the main Kaspersky software being out of date, and is thus fixed by making sure the latest version is installed.
    Some users are seeing favorites get duplicated after we made some previous fixes in that area. The most common way this is triggered is by installing the Stable channel of Edge and then signing into it with an account that has already signed into Edge before. This issue should be reduced now that automatic deduplication has been introduced into Insider channels. However, we’ve also seen duplication happen when running the manual deduplicator on multiple machines before either machine has a chance to fully sync its changes, so while we wait for the automatic deduplication to make it to Stable, make sure to leave plenty of time in between runs of the deduplicator.
    Some users are seeing “wobbling” behavior when scrolling using trackpad gestures or touchscreens, where scrolling in one dimension also causes the page to subtly scroll back and forth in the other. Note that this only affects certain websites and seems to be worse on certain devices. This is most likely related to our ongoing work to bring scrolling back to parity with Edge Legacy’s behavior, so if this behavior is undesirable, you can temporarily turn it off by disabling the edge://flags/#edge-experimental-scrolling flag.
