Hi.

I am using the latest stable version of Microsoft Edge (Version 116.0.1938.62 (Official build) (64-bit)).
I want to hide/remove the edge sidebar. It doesn't work in Edge Workspace.

I have been facing the error for the last 1 month. I have only encountered the problem in the workspace. When Microsoft Edge launched the Edge Workspace feature, this option worked well. But now, I can't remove or hide the sidebar in the workspace.

try edge://flags/#edge-workspaces-skype-entry-point and choose one of the options "Enabled" or "Enabled Hub chat icon" this adds one icon to the browser toolbar but removes the sidebar. It works for me on Stable and Dev versions

After this issue happening again, this fixed it for me. "Enabled Hub chat icon" is a bit less intrusive.

The old solution in which you needed to delete the workspace etc doesn't work anymore.

    But what about ALL the other workspaces already created across multiple work accounts? This seems like a bug that should be fixed, and this workaround doesn't really help with existing use cases.

    Strange behaviour observed in new macos update Version 120.0.2165.1 (Official build) Dev(arm64)

    Not able to disable sidebar in one workspace, however sidebar is not present in another workspace (However this is the workspace which i re-created after setting skype flag to disabled.) So after every new update do i need to always create a new copy of every workspace? Please fix the issue, no point in recreating new workspace to get rid of sidebar after every update.
