Yeah I noticed the cursor keys issue too, reported it using the tool. On mine, pressing the cursor keys throws the cursor into the address bar, especially annoying when you are navigating a comment you are creating and forget.

Yup, exactly what it would do for me but it seems fixed now on the newest canary, did it get fixed for you?

I hope they change their mind on Linux support at some point as I still say that's a huge missed opportunity. If they don't want to upkeep multiple Linux repositories they could package it as a SNAP app or something.

Microsoft already have repositories for Linux at http://packages.microsoft.com/.

Agreed... it'd be pretty awesome on Linux. They're already doing other products for Linux (e.g. Visual Studio Code) - doesn't seem like a browser based on something already available on Linux would be such a massive stretch. 

my thoughts exactly

yes for other products as Chicane-UK mentioned but nothing for Edge yet that I'm aware

I would love them to change the theme of the tabs as i hate the Chrome look and i want a speed dial like Vivaldi where i set what dials they're without them changing.

I'd have to open old edge and check but I think you had the ability to pin the ones you wanted to keep on the new tab page.

 

*Edit*  Yup, you can, so if something shows up you could at least pin it there and get rid of the rest.  You can at least add sites to it though I never bothered with a dial in any browser I've used.

New Canary build 76.0.158.0 is out.  Don't know what's new in this one at this point.  I was running into a odd youtube video issue with 76.0.155.0 though, where clicking on a video would give me a video player error.  Looks to be fixed in this build so far.

Canary 76.0.162.0, it's a shame these builds don't have a change log of some sort.  So far the only thing I've noticed is that they've added a "Close  Microsoft Edge"  command at the very end of the right menu, that wasn't there before.  The last entry used to be the "Help and Feedback" listing.  Unless I'm totally remembering it wrong?

Version 76.0.167.0 hit for me, and I just noticed in the Sync section that Settings is now flipped on when it used to only be favorites.   So looks like they've added sync support for your Edge settings starting with this version.

Just got the newest Canary build  77.0.188.0.      Haven't noticed anything new, other than being on the newest v77 engine.  They really should put out some change log for Canary to IMO.

Anyone on the newest Canary version , Version 77.0.211.0 have a issue where Edge is always on top of other windows?  I've closed it and opened it again, also restarted the shell, but nothing.

Looks like it's not just me, the insider forum has posts as well, gonna have to wait for a new build and hope it's fixed.  The problem was already reported so that's good.

    • Microsoft releases major feature updates for stock Windows 11 apps

      Since they open sourced the calculator in Win 10/11 it is much better and can do a lot, I love it.
    • Using Windows 10 past its end of support date, is it really that bad?

      By +Edouard · Posted

      That's just silly imo. The lengths that man goes to just to avoid W11 is just nuts. Very, very few home users would do that. I will say this though, he is committed. Btw, I note on askwoody that Woody Leonhard passed away March, 2025 aged 73. His site was one of my favorites back in the day. Belated yes but RIP Woody.

      Because of the EU (a good thing) newer android devices been getting 5 years worth of security patches. Except some Motorola which found the loop hole, and offer ZERO updates. In addition, Google for years have been making where it can patch some stuff by updating the core Google Play Store itself.  As echoed earlier,  you take the security risk in to your own hand beyond supported.
