    If you're experiencing a "too many requests" error when trying to log into Yahoo Mail, it typically indicates that there have been excessive login attempts in a short time frame. This can lead to temporary restrictions on your account to prevent abuse.

    Here are some steps you can take to resolve this issue:

    1. Wait for a While: Often, the best solution is to wait for a certain period before attempting to log in again, as the restriction may lift automatically after some time.
    2. Clear Your Browser's Cache: Clearing your browser's cache and cookies can help resolve any stored data issues that might be causing the login problem.
    3. Try a Different Browser or Device: Attempt to log in using a different web browser or device to see if the issue persists.
    4. Check Account Security: Ensure that your account is secure and has not been compromised. If you notice any suspicious activity, consider changing your password.

    If the issue continues after trying these steps, it may be helpful to reach out to Yahoo support for further assistance.

    Upon checking, there is an ongoing issue with AOL and Yahoo Mail services, which explains why you are seeing the “Edge: Too Many Requests” error even when using Chrome. This error message does not mean you are actually using Microsoft Edge, it is a server-side response that appears when login systems are overloaded or temporarily blocking repeated attempts.

    Since you already tried clearing cache and restarting without success, the problem is not on your computer but on the service side.

    The best step is to wait for the outage to be resolved, avoid repeated sign-in attempts, and try again later or on another device.
