This tutorial will show you how to either show or hide the title bar of Microsoft Edge while vertical tabs is turned on for your account in Windows 10 and Windows 11.

The Microsoft Edge web browser is based on Chromium and was released on January 15, 2020. It is compatible with all supported versions of Windows, and macOS. With speed, performance, best in class compatibility for websites and extensions, and built-in privacy and security features.

Microsoft Edge allows you to have your tabs show horizontal at the top (default) or vertical on the left side pane.

Vertical tabs allow you to move your tabs from the top to the left side in Microsoft Edge where site icons and titles are longer making it easier to quickly scan, identify and switch to the right tab. Also, when you want to use more of your screen space, you can unpin (collapse) the side pane on the left and simply hover over it to expand.

You can have the title bar of the Microsoft Edge window show or hide while you have vertical tabs turned on.
