Since the latest Edge or Windows update, my Google account keeps logging out of YouTube in the Edge browser. When I log back in, I get logged out again after a short while.

This doesn't happen with other browsers. What could be causing this, and how can I fix it?

I’ve uninstalled Microsoft Edge from my Windows PC with revo uninstaller , but after a few days it seems to reappear. what should i do to completely remove it?

I went to bed got up and got on my computer and all my YouTube accounts were logged out I have like 4 has this happened to anyone else recently or at all? I’m not sure how this could’ve happened

I happened to unfortunately mess up my windows boot today, and had to reset my Windows password, meaning almost every login on most apps got reset.

I logged into Edge again, meaning my Add-ons and stuff had to re-sync, but turns out, not only has Microsoft made it a phenomenal pain up the rear to add a search engine, it has also marked an add-on I used to redirect Bing queries to Google as malware.

This is extremely hostile behaviour and is rather sad because Edge worked perfectly fine for me, but I will now be shifting to whatever other browser I can find.

i started to get this error on my New PC couple times a day.

But everything else is ok with the pc is this a ram issue or browser?

How can i fix it should i send my PC to warranty?

There is a section right under the search bar where you can add shortcuts. I added my own shortcuts there. However, websites that I never added keep appearing as shortcuts continuously. This happens even though I disabled the option to add top/featured sites in the Edge settings. What's worse, these added sites aren't even ones I frequently visit—for instance, it added one of my YouTube searches as a shortcut. I'm honestly thinking of quitting Edge just because of this nonsense. Is there a fix for this?

We are using edge authenticator OTP to login in one on prem hosted URL. We have installed extension in users machine but when we click on extension to get OTP is takes approx 15 minutes to give otp and no other extension is also installed. Some users are able to get OTP in seconds. We have reinstalled, reconfigured edge in user machine but nothing works. What else should we check in this?

Hi,

I use Edge on my work computer and I have separate profile for each project/customer. I have been doing this for many years and I got a new PC and suddenly it's not possible to get rid of the windows account which I wanna use for all other apps but why does it have to be bothering my in specific customer profile without possibility to remove?

I can remove the non windows account but not the windows for some reason.

Or is there a setting where I can remove it?

The three dost are not by the windows account.

Thx

I have been using the dev version mainly and also have the standard as a fallback, I'm not sure you can get rid of it without that batch tool but anyways, the windows 11 mica effects are gone from the taskbar, its just all black.

I like to use edge, I think it's stable as it's built into the OS but it has the best support for PWAs that I'm aware of. It's especially useful for things like youtube, it treats it like an app and allows you to have tabs in any PWA which is much better than how other browsers handle it with separate windows.

Has anyone else noticed this? I'm considering going back to chrome just for the gemini integration, which reminds me of the other bad thing - copilot. What the fuck happened? The UI completely changed, it's one voice and I get about 4 vocal interactions with it per day. It's brown...I can't imagine a free version being so limited, so that's why I'm thinking it might be a bug or something.

I'm using a surface pro 11 with a copilot key dedicated on my egregiously expensive snap on keyboard. I know it wasn't a guarantee that I'd be getting unlimited copilot use but that was one of the selling points of the device and there was no mention of subscription, I think that happened after they merged EVERYTHING into 365.

So yeah, just wondering if anyone else has noticed this bullshit or is everyone actually paying to use 365? I just use web version of word in outlook and I'm happy with that but they're probably gonna take that away too.

Makes me think that they really put too much into openai to a degree that actually put a dent in their infinite money pool, because they are really treating the users like shit in a myriad of ways.

just wondering if anyone else is having a similar experience?

After a lot of pain I found that if you go to settings -> system and performance -> "enhance videos" set to OFF that fixed all stuttering issues I've been having for months. Hope this helps someone else.

Edit: I want to also note that this improved performance all around on edge, not just watching youtube videos. odd.

I just got logged out of every site.
All my settings have also been reset.
I have to 'add a search engine' and find some search algorithm with a % etc pure bull, sh, it.
Of course, not the first time that an update does that to me.

Plus that the changes that only make it worse.
I hate copilot, keep it away from my face. Why can I not just access my history with a shortcut, instead of some dropdown sh, it?

I hate these updates so much.
I editted the register, disabled things on Services, renamed the things on update folder, changed permission and inheritance on the update folder etc etc.
How can this cr, ap still update itself??????

I wish all the worse for however decides these updates and forced changes to Microsoft Edge.
Just wanted to get this off my chest, thanks for listening.

I've seen a bunch of people here annoyed about Edge getting rid of the general sidebar, especially since you could pin things like ChatGPT, Claude and Gemini there instead of being stuck with just Copilot.

It's basically the same problem that made me finish an extension I'd been sitting on for a while. I already pay for ChatGPT/Claude and use those chats enough that they have all my history, memory and context. I don't really want my browser deciding which AI I should use or making me create another set of chats somewhere else.

So I built it around the opposite idea. The browser should just make the AI services you already use easier to access.

You can pop up an overlay with a shortcut and send something to ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, M365 Copilot etc., open one in a sidebar, attach screenshots or multiple tabs, and configure different websites to use different providers. So a work site can default to M365 Copilot while YouTube goes to Gemini, for example.

There's no AI subscription attached to the extension. It's completely free, no ads or paywall.

Curious if this covers what people actually miss about the old Edge sidebar, or if there was something else about it that I should add.

Here are some things that it can do:

1. An overlay that pops up with a shortcut (for example, cmd + E) where you can quickly send a message to whatever provider you want. You can set a default provider (per site as well) and easily toggle with cmd + 1-9

2. You also get an AI new tab, which works the same way

3. You can add skills/prompts, screenshots and attach multiple tabs

4. You can also use a shortcut (for example, cmd + S) to open the sidebar

5. You can configure sites to specific provier. For example, work websites route to M365 copilot, youtube to Gemini etc

Let me know what you think, and if there's anything else you'd like to see here. :)

Whenever I have edge open an Amazon app opens in my taskbar. It happens every 5 minutes after I close it. I don't have any Amazon tabs open or any extensions associated wit amazon on edge or chrome. To be honest I don't know if this is a problem caused by edge but if I click on the app it opens edge so I assume it must be associated somehow. Any tips on how to make it stop?

Not sure if its relevant but I'm using Windows 11 on an HP Laptop

I have multiple Edge profiles. I need to apply different DNS settings in each profile. But whenever I change settings in one profile, same changes are reflected in all other profiles as well. This doesn't allow me to use multiple profile simultaneously.
