Anyone using (new) Edge C (GA) & or testing the Edge Insider beta Channels, comments (bad AND good), tips, info to share, observations, suggestions/requests, issues/problems, curiosities, questions, you name it... The floor is yours...

Myself, I have run all available Insider Builds since April.  And, now, running Edge C GA, as well; swapped from HTML Jan. 15th.

I am/have been very impressed with the performance.  Been a bit fun adapting to some things/methods/locations/layouts/structure.  Some NTML features seem missing, BUT, heaps more stuff is coming very soon.  Some 'new' & different items are quite cool.  It has been interesting as an Insider.  And it will be interesting for people using & discovering THIS Edge.  It is, well, IMHO, will be THE outstanding browser.  I, strongly urge & encourage Folks to adopt it. Be prepared, though... it's very fast ��

Let's see what more detail & specifics y'all may have, will have to add here...

Anxious for your remarks, look forward to the input that can be share to everyone's benefit, of course.

The floor is yours...

Cheers,

Drew

    I might not have worded it very well or very clearly.  Default works IF the thing didn't need a flag.  As long as a flag is needed or is, still, needed then, YES, it must be changed from Default to Enabled.  

    And sometimes can be like this example: Collections does not use a flag, anymore, in Dev. Dark, still, does.

    However, Edge C GA, there is no flag for Collections ... with or without a flag, Collections hasn't made it to GA, yet.

    Does it, still, make sense? LOL  They come & they go, a way to test things before embedding in the browser.

    Cheers,

    Drew

    It Makes perfect sense Now Drew,

           er... you mentioned that a flag is No Longer Needed if in the flags settings it is set to "Default" . But both of my Flags were set to default for the Grammar and Force dark mode. I had to change them to "Enable" to get them to work properly. ?

    Your welcome.

    An explanation about flags & feature flow in the Channels:

    Things will start in Canary and maybe find their way to GA (stable) and maybe with some modification by the time they end up in GA.  Many things, also, work with 'Flags'... these things may or may not end up being reality... as Flags they are forced to exist... IF they become Default the flag is no longer needed.  BUT, while needing the flag, at least, 2 things are determined; (1), does it work well, properly & as intended & (2) is it wanted, used & liked by enough people to become Default & drop the flag.

    There are a few things that needed flags, but, do not any longer ( depending a bit which Channel & at which point in time).

    I trust this ⬆ helps make a wee bit more sense of it.

    Cheers,

    Drew

    Hi Leprechaun,

    Thank you for your reply.

    Running windows 10 version 1909  in safe mode with networking, Norton is automatically disabled.

    Therefore if Norton is the culprit and not enabled in safe mode and  therefore MS EDGE CHROMIUM should work flawlessly, unfortunately this is not the case in safe mode time lag is the same.

    Would welcome more solutions to this issue.

    Hi Kevin006,

                Not sure if this link to Norton Support Site will help, but you might want to start here

    @ https://support.norton.com/sp/en/us/home/current/solutions/v113672388

    Also please check some of the posts on this board about Norton 360. I'm Not Positive, but I'd check into Norton 360 as a possible culprit.

    I hope you get it resolved.
