Microsoft updates Edge in stable version for all users: tab groups arrive
Table of contents:
Microsoft has released a new update for its Edge browser in the stable version that brings it to build 93.0.961.38. Two steps behind the Dev and Canary channels (already using version 95), Edge on the stable channel receives interesting improvements with this update
Once updated Edge now has tab groups, the ability to hide the title bar in tab mode verticals, the option to use Picture-in-Picture (PiP) mode, or seamless mode when used in compatibility with Internet Explorer.These are all the changes coming with this update.
What's New in Edge
- Tab Groups. Tab grouping has been enabled which provides the ability to categorize tabs into user-defined groups and help you find, switch, and manage tabs more effectively across multiple workflows.
-
Video Picture-in-Picture (PiP) from Floating Toolbar When you hover over a supported video, a toolbar that will allow you to view that video in a PiP window. This enhancement is currently available for users of Microsoft Edge on macOS.

"
You can now hide the title bar while using vertical tabs You can save space by hiding the browser title bar, while in the vertical tabs. To do this, go to edge: // settings / appearance and, in the Customize toolbar sectionselect the option to hide the title bar in vertical tab mode."
- Startup Preferences in Microsoft Edge Microsoft Edge now supports a limited number of Startup Preferences (formerly Master Preferences). This enhancement can be implemented by IT administrators by default before users launch the browser for the first time. Here you have more information about it.
-
"
- IE mode in Microsoft Edge will support non-merging behavior For an end user, when a new browser window is launched from an application in IE mode, it will be in a separate session, similar to the non-merging behavior in Internet Explorer 11. You will need to adjust the site list to configure which sites to avoid session sharing as no merge. For each Microsoft Edge window, the first time an IE mode tab is visited within that window, if it is one of the designated no-merge sites, that window crashes at a no-merge>."
- There is a new policy to stop implicit login. The ImplicitSignInEnabled policy allows system administrators to disable implicit sign-in in Microsoft Edge browsers.
- Policies to ignore ClickOnce and DirectInvoke prompts Policies have been updated to allow bypassing ClickOnce and DirectInvoke prompts for specific file types, from specific domains.To do this you need to enable ClickOnceEnabled or DirectInvokeEnabled, enable the AutoOpenFileTypes policy and set the list of specific file types for which ClickOnce and DirectInvoke should be disabled and enable the AutoOpenAllowedForURLs policy and set the list of specific domains for which ClickOnce will be disabled and DirectInvoke.
- Removing 3DES in TLS Support for the TLS_RSA_WITH_3DES_EDE_CBC_SHA cipher suite will be removed. This change is happening in the Chromium project, which Microsoft Edge is based on. For more information, navigate to the Chrome Platform Status entry. Additionally, in Microsoft Edge version 93, the TripleDESEnabled policy will be available to support scenarios that need to preserve compatibility with outdated servers. This compatibility policy will be deprecated and will stop working in Microsoft Edge version 95.Be sure to update any affected servers before that date.
