Hi there

I'm wondering if anyone knows how to disable 'feature recommendations' in edge.

At one time you could do it by typing 'edge://flags/#edge-show-feature-recommendations' into the address bar and disabling it, but now that has gone !

Looking forward to your reply

:)

What is this message and how can I stop it!?

Every now and then while working on my PC this message pops up: I think it's MS Edge... And as soon as I click on Dismiss, my screen freezes for few seconds, Then explorer seem to restart after a crash and things get back to normal. For it to stop I few time chose "Learn Shortcuts" thinking...

There should be an extension for Edge: MS Nag Blocker! :cool:

MS is terrible for nags throughout the entire OS!

No nags for me from Windows, it simply hosts my software. But If I have to launch Edge to see how a site I am making operates in it, I proffer not to be hassled by it

If there is a suggestion/recommendation pop-up that has a 8855.webp button, I expect them to honor my decision until my funeral, or fully blown Alzheimer's sets in, which ever comes first!!! 🤷‍♂️
