Microsoft has released a new update for its Edge web browser within the Dev Channel, the intermediate of the three that make up the test channels. An update that arrives loaded with improvements and especially with some cool features.
Edge updated by build 96.0.1032.0 within the Dev Channel with improvements such as the possibility of writing on a web page using voice writing on those computers that have [instalado Windows 11]), the ability to move a tab between profiles, and expected performance improvements. Also, the new version of Edge is now officially available on Xbox.
New functions
- A tab can be moved to a different profile, even if there are no windows for that profile currently open thanks to a new item in the context menu when you right-click on the tab.
- The option to use voice typing is enabled on web pages on Windows 11 computers.
- A button is added to the dialog Comments main for easy access to the “Recreate my problem” sub-dialog.
- An X has been added to close some notifications that appear when managing Collections
- It has been added a button to exit Immersive Reader on iPad.
- Improved messages have been added when the Web Widget does not open because an extension has disabled it

- In the mobile version, we fixed an issue where the browser login would sometimes crash after updating the application.

- In the mobile version, we fixed an issue where data was sometimes inadvertently imported from other browsers multiple times in a row, resulting in duplicate data.
Known issues
- Users of certain ad blocking extensions may experience playback errors on YouTube. As a workaround, temporarily disabling the extension should allow playback to continue.
- Some users still have an issue where all tabs and extensions crash immediately with a STATUS_INVALID_IMAGE_HASH error. The most common cause of this error is outdated antivirus or security software from vendors like Symantec, and in those cases, updating that software will fix it.
- Kaspersky Internet Suite users who have the associated extension installed they can sometimes see that web pages like Gmail are not loading. This error is caused by the main Kaspersky software being outdated and therefore fixed by making sure the latest version is installed.
- Some users are seeing “wobble” behavior when scrolling using trackpad gestures or touchscreens, where scrolling in one dimension also causes the page to subtly scroll back and forth in the other. Note that this only affects certain websites and appears to be worse on certain devices. This is most likely related to our work in progress to bring scrolling back to parity with Edge Legacy behavior, so if this behavior is undesirable you can temporarily disable it by disabling the edge: // flags / # flag edge-experimental-scrolling.
Remember that this version already shows the improvements that have been previously tested in the Canary Channel. You can now download the new Edge at this link in any of the channels on the platforms on which it is available. If you already have it installed, just go to preferences within the browser and check if you have any pending updates.
