Microsoft Edge Freezes in Office 365 Outlook With Overlays - Mac OS

I'm having a very specific issue with Microsoft Edge where it freezes whenever I use Outlook (0365 Education on the web), and it produces an overlay of some type. This occurs when I open an email attachment, preview a message, and select a menu item that creates a confirmation overlay (for example when selecting 'empty folder'). It seems to be restricted to this behavior, and it reoccurs very frequently. I have tried the following:

  • Cleared Cache
  • Disabled / Removed Plugins
  • Reinstalled Edge

I'm currently using Microsoft Edge Version 107.0.1418.52 (Official build) (arm64). I'm on a MacBook Air M1 MacOS Monterey V 12.6 (21G115).

I'm wondering if there is a known issue with this type of behavior specifically. Thanks in advance for any insight.

UPDATE, EDITED (DEC 7): After a few weeks, this issue still persists on all builds on and after 107.0.1418.52. I have opened a ticket with Microsoft. While the solution kindly provided by par_0511 allows you to roll back, no fix has been applied. In my case, I cannot use Edge on a production machine due to the age of the last working version.

terry.schoof/Thom Hanford, Can you please try downloading >= 108.0.1462.46 build and share whether it works for you or not? You can download it from this page Microsoft Edge (see below image)

    Just did some testing...

    • Updated to build 108.0.1462.46
    • It appears that updating also reselected both of the accessibility options
    • I left the options selected and tested, and all appears to be working again!!

    I also reinstalled uBlock, and it all still appears to be working just fine. I'll update if anything changes, but this latest build seems to have fixed everything :)

    I can confirm that this does not resolve the issue. For good measure, extensions were also turned off.

    Good day Thom! I am glad to be able to provide assistance to you today. Did this happened on the previous version of Edge before you updated to Version 107.0.1418.52?

    Regards,

    Paul R.
