Microsoft has updated the Edge browser in the dev channel to version 91.0.831.1. The most striking innovation is that the accent colors have now been released for everyone under Settings => Appearance.
We had already reported on the synchronization under Linux in advance. But of course, there are other improvements and new functions.
- Added an option to the right-click menu to open the current page in Immersive Reader. Note that this option is only available on pages that are suitable for immersive readers in the first place.
- The ability to use the system theme on Linux has been added.
- A management policy has been added to control the opening of a PDF file in Safe Mode.
- A management policy has been added that controls whether the content of the new tab page is enabled, specifically the content of Microsoft News.
Other fixed issues in Microsoft Edge 91.0.831.1
- Fixed a crash on startup.
- Fixed a crash when using Family Safety.
- A crash when submitting feedback has been fixed.
- When navigating to certain web pages, the Edge crashes in kiosk mode.
- Fixed an issue where Application Guard windows would sometimes close unexpectedly.
- Fixed an issue where the Edge crashes on closing and the prompt to restore tabs appears unexpectedly the next time it is opened.
- Fixed an issue where websites like Youtube sometimes crash shortly after loading.
- Fixed an issue where PWAs or websites installed as apps would sometimes fail to open.
- Fixed an issue where the web widget would sometimes appear frozen or blank.
- Fixed an issue where some web pages would not load the first time when using Family Safety, forcing the user to manually reload the page.
- Fixed an issue where URL suggestions would not work if the URL you entered resulted in a failed navigation but was similar to a known URL.
- Other issues fixed
Known problems
- Nothing has changed here compared to the previous versions.
- Certain extensions, such as B. the Microsoft Editor extension do not work on Linux. Once installed, they will crash and be disabled. We are currently investigating this.
- Users of certain ad blocker extensions may experience playback errors on Youtube. As a workaround, temporarily disabling the extension should allow playback.
- Some users still experience an issue where all tabs and extensions immediately crash with a STATUS_INVALID_IMAGE_HASH error. The most common cause of this error is out of date security or antivirus software
- For users of Kaspersky Internet Suite who have installed the associated extension, websites such as Gmail may sometimes not load. This error occurs because the main Kaspersky software is out of date
- The deduplication in the Edge Stable should always be given a little more time. Otherwise, favorites are displayed twice.
- Some users see a "wobble" when scrolling with trackpad gestures or touchscreens, with scrolling in one dimension also causing the page to scroll slightly back and forth in the other dimension. This is most likely related to our ongoing work to bring the scrolling back to parity with Edge Legacy's behavior. So if this behavior is undesirable, you can turn it off temporarily by turning off the edge: // flags / # edge-experimental-scrolling flag.

- Uninstalling Microsoft Edge: If the Edge has not been installed by yourself, you can still remove the Edge if you want to Uninstall Microsoft Edge - Even if it's grayed out, follow the steps below:
Step 1: Uninstall Microsoft Edge Using PowerShell Or The Command Prompt
The easiest way is through PowerShell. And that is how it works:
- In File Explorer, navigate to the path C: \ Program Files (x86) \ Microsoft \ Edge \ Application.
- Select the current version number here. In the example, open 83.0.478.58 and then the Installer folder
- The setup.exe is located in this folder
- Now open the File -> PowerShell -> PowerShell (administrator) tab
- Enter cmd and press Enter
- Now enter the command and press Enter:
setup.exe --uninstall --system-level --verbose-logging --force-uninstall
You can also use the command prompt. Here you just have to navigate to the path in the cmd.exe and then enter the command.
Now you may be asked to restart and then Microsoft Edge is uninstalled. The command itself was suitable for the preview versions, but also works brilliantly and without problems with the Edge Canary installed by Microsoft itself.
Step 2: Uninstall Microsoft Edge With A Script
We have now tried out whether it is possible to write a bat file with these commands. But it failed because: "The cmd window always closes when it is executed before it reaches the" FOR "command, which the Edge Setup should find automatically"
But it still works like this:
- Enter the command prompt in the button bar and start as administrator (important!)
- Copy this content into it and press Enter:
cd% temp% set "programf =% programfiles%" if% PROCESSOR_ARCHITECTURE% == AMD64 set "programf =% programfiles (x86)%" dir / b "% programf% \ Microsoft \ Edge \ Application" | SORT / R> list.txt FOR / F "usebackq delims =="% i IN (list.txt) DO start / WAIT / MIN cmd / c "% programf% \ Microsoft \ Edge \ Application \% i \ Installer \ setup.exe" --uninstall - -system-level --verbose-logging --force-uninstall del list.txt cd% temp% dir / b "% HOMEDRIVE% \ Users"> list.txt FOR / F "usebackq delims =="% i IN (list.txt) DO rd / q / s "% HOMEDRIVE% \ Users \% i \ AppData \ Local \ Microsoft \ Edge \"del list.txt
The second section in the script requests whether the browser data should also be deleted.
You can only execute the first set of commands, both at the same time, or only start the second set of commands separately if you only want to have the browser data deleted.
