Microsoft Edge Dev is updated to version 93.0.933.1

One more week comes a new update to Microsoft Edge in the Dev channel. This time with the groups of tabs and the integration of the collections that we will see below. Last week, with the launch of Windows 11 we did not get to cover the update, however, we go back to our old ways to bring you the news of the version 93.0.933.1. We are going to see everything that comes to Edge.

Known bugs for this build

• Certain extensions, such as the Microsoft Editor extension, do not work on Linux. As soon as they are installed, they are locked and disabled. We are investigating.
• 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 The most common cause of this error is outdated antivirus or security software from vendors like Symantec, and in those cases, updating that software will fix it.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 can sometimes see web pages like Gmail not loading. This error is due to the main Kaspersky software being out of date, so it is fixed by making sure the latest version is installed.
• Some users are seeing bookmarks doubling after some previous fixes were made in that area. The most common way to trigger this is by installing Edge’s stable channel and then signing in with an account that is already signed in to Edge.
• Some users are seeing “wobbling” behavior when scrolling using trackpad gestures or touch screens. Here 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 probably related to the work in progress to bring the offset back to parity with Edge Legacy behavior. So if this behavior is undesirable, we can temporarily disable it. Disabling the edge flag: // flags / # edge-experimental-scrolling
