- Click in the Target field, press the Space key, and type –enable-features=msEdgePhoto.
- Save your changes and open Edge with the modified link.
- Open an image by dragging it into Microsoft Edge.
In addition to this tool for viewing images, the changelog also mentions a shortcut that facilitates deleting data related to cache storage, cookies and download history without having to access the settings page. This feature increases privacy for users who want to keep their searches discreet.
There are also reports that the developer is working on other enhancements to the app, including a refined dark mode and new options in the sidebar. The fact that these new features appear in the Canary edition does not guarantee their arrival in the stable version.having to wait for new updates.
