If like me, you want to get rid of the Bing button/sidebar feature that came with this update
Microsoft caves in, adds Edge setting to disable the Bing button
Microsoft has updated Microsoft Edge Canary today with a new option to turn off the Bing icon in the browser. The company launched the Bing icon in Microsoft Edge 111 and has received criticism for the way it has implemented it. The actual name of the feature is Discover.
Users criticized Microsoft for making the Bing button activate the sidebar on hover. Since it is placed next to the main menu button, accidental activations are common. To make matters worse, Microsoft did not add an option to Edge to turn the functionality off….

Edge Version 109.0.1518.100:
Ref: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/deployedge/microsoft-edge-relnote-stable-channel
This update was done for our M109 Windows down-level extended support. We’re shipping 109 to Win 7, 8, and 8.1 (including Server 2012 R2 which is based on Win 8.1)…
I find it very interesting that Microsoft issued this Edge security update for Win7, 8, 8.1, Server 2012 & Server 2012 R2 while the new Goggle Chrome update (109.0.5414.141) indicates it only applies to Server 2012 & Server 2012 R2.
I guess Goggle intends to leave us Win 7, 8 and 8.1 uses “hanging in the breeze” as far as protection against these two actively exploited in the wild CVE’s are concerned.
NOT GOOD!
After a bit of sleuthing on the internet, I discovered a powershell script written by shawnkhall called ChromeDownloader.ps1 that lets you download the latest version of any Google Chrome build!
Using it I located and downloaded the new April 20 Google Chrome update for Server 2012 (the version MS issued for Win7 also applied to Server 2012) and it worked to update my Win 7 Chrome 109.0.5414.75 to 109.0.5414.141.
So my Win7 Chrome is now “fully protected” with the latest security updates.
To save others the trouble of using the script to locate the download links, here they are:
Note: the downloads come directly from Google’s google.com/dl/release2/chrome server and, like the MS update, should also apply for Win8 & Win8.1

Warning: unfortunately for those with no need for or interest in using Microsoft’s Edge Sidebar, this update also forces a new Sidebar button/icon(/ad) onto the Edge toolbar that currently cannot be disabled/hidden via the browser Settings interface.
I have Edge 121.0.2277.128 installed and, as you can see from the below image, it has no such icon so it can be disabled/hidden!
Not sure exactly which one of these may be responsible for doing it, but here’s the Edge Sidebar registry settings on my system.

Release notes for Microsoft Edge Security Updates | Microsoft Learn
As of Tue Mar 26, 06:56 am EDT, Edge 122.0.2365.92 still shows as up-to-date on my Windows 10 22H2.
I also just checked Microsoft’s “official” Edge download site and, while the Edge Stable 123 channel shows version 123.0.2420.53 as available for download for Linux, Windows isn’t listed as an available download for that version.
The strange thing is, if I select the Edge Stable 122 channel, it shows version 122.0.2365.106 as the most current available for Windows.
So why hasn’t my Edge 122.0.2365.92 updated itself to 122.0.2365.106?
There’s also the fact the release notes for Edge stable now indicate it was released Fri 22 Mar even though, when I checked them yesterday afternoon – see my 26533465 post, those same release notes showed the 123 version hadn’t been released yet?!?!
And, at lease for some of us on Windows 10 22H2, Edge 122.0.2365.92 still shows as up to date?!?!
Obviously something “really weird” is going on with the release of the new 123 version of Edge!
The full message is…
“Update policies are configured but will be ignored because this device isn’t domain joined.”
That’s most likely because a few of my Edge GP settings contain the following statement.
This policy is available only on Windows instances that are joined to a Microsoft® Active Directory® domain
And my system isn’t connected to an AD domain anymore.
I just ignore that message just like I ignore the *Some settings are managed by your organization message that shows at the top of the Windows Update screen because some of my GP settings that prevent automatic download/install of Windows updates.
BTW, that message has absolutely nothing to do with why my Edge isn’t being updated to the 123 channel. I’ve been seeing it for quite a while and, up til now, it’s always updated to the latest Stable version!
There’s also a TON of posts on the internet from others who’ve experienced issues where 123.0.2420.53 crashed right after it was released on March 22 and the only fix was to “manually” roll it back to 122.0.2365.92/122.0.2365.106
The fact some of us aren’t getting updated to the 123 channel would seem to indicate it still isn’t working properly for some PC’s and Microsoft isn’t letting it update if it detects your PC is one of those that might experience problems running it??
I can say, every time I’ve used About Microsoft Edge to check my version, I do see the small blue circling arrows for a few seconds before it says it’s up to date so it is connecting to the MS servers and checking for an update.
about Microsoft Edge? That option auto ‘checks for updates’, no going back.?
Actually, there is a “downgrade” procedure for Edge…it requires that you have an Edge .msi file for the version you want to go back to.
Download the Edge .msi to either your Desktop, or your Downloads folder.
I use this link for the .msi –
Download Edge for Business (microsoft.com)
Scroll down to the section “Looking for an older version of Edge?” and get the version you want.
Open an elevated (Run as administrator) Command prompt.
cd to either the Desktop or Download folder.
Enter (copy and paste the following command)…
msiexec /I MicrosoftEdgeEnterpriseX64.msi /qn ALLOWDOWNGRADE=1 /L*V “C:\package.log”
Note: Make sure full permissions for Administrators and yourself are set in msiexec.exe located in C:\Windows\System32 and C:\Windows\SysWOW64
Microsoft pulls Edge 123 from the Stable Channel with its ‘Microsoft Copilot’ app
New info from the above link.
Update: A Microsoft spokesperson said the update was paused to ensure compatibility with certain enterprise configurations:
The rollout for Microsoft Edge 123 was paused to ensure compatibility with certain enterprise configurations related to storage of user profile data. It was not related to Microsoft Copilot. We plan to resume the rollout of Edge 123 as soon as March 27, 2024.
Looks like ver. 123 is in cue. To update or not, that is the question. Don’t wish to have to go through the ‘rollback’ procedure. I wonder if I hold off, if whatever is in cue will be replaced once Microsoft releases a newer (corrected) version?
(I have ‘metered connections’ on in network to prevent auto updating when checking Edge)
Just checked and my Edge has been updated to 123.0.2420.65 and the Edge release notes have been updated to show that’s the current Stable version.
So it appears MS decided to skip fixing whatever was wrong with .53 and just go directly to version .65.
So far, I haven’t noticed anything unusual with using this version!
BTW, the update did install the Microsoft Copilot app but. since I didn’t want it, I used the uninstall option and it’s now gone!
Microsoft Edge fixes 0-day vulnerability: confirms all Chromium-based browsers vulnerable
Microsoft released a security update for its Edge web browser that address several security issues, including one that is exploited in the wild…
The company has now released 123.0.2420.65, which addresses eight unique security issues in the browser.
One of them is CVE-2024-2883, which affects all Chromium-based browsers. The official CVE page on Microsoft’s website reveals that the issue is already attacked in the wild.
Microsoft writes: “Google is aware that an exploit for CVE-2024-2883 exists in the wild.”..
Microsoft recently re-released Edge 123 in the Stable Channel. The company pulled the update earlier to resolve compatibility issues with certain enterprise configurations. Now, the update is back with the necessary fix and four zero-day vulnerability fixes that, according to Microsoft, are exploited in the wild…
I haven’t right clicked on it for fear of activating or installing, but a left click does nothing (no uninstall – nothing).
Strange??
After my Edge was updated to 123.0.2420.65 and the Microsoft Copilot app was installed, left clicking it in Apps & Features displayed the following options.
And selecting Uninstall worked just fine.
BTW, Microsoft Copilot and Windows Copilot are two completely different things.
Microsoft Copilot is simply the Bing Chat app using a new name and can, so far, be uninstalled (see the Apparently, I’ve been dribbled Copilot. Now what? thread for more info.)
Windows Copilot is a integral part of the Windows OS and can’t be uninstalled, only disabled.

Fixed various bugs and performance issues.
That’s all, nothing else. So, no rush to get it. After all, MS didn’t even bother to specifically say what was fixed, so they must not be too worried about the fixes. At least for the .63 release back on Tuesday, they said something specific. 🤐

https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/deployedge/microsoft-edge-relnotes-security#september-26-2024
(And fixed a recent bug opening new tab or window from right-click on favorite).
I have a feeling that it’s because 128 is probably considered to be on an “ESR” type of channel for the time being. There have been two versions in recent history, one right behind the other. Take a look down through the release notes over the last several months and you’ll see evidence of this.
Starting with Stable channel version 94, Microsoft Edge is moving to a 4-week major release cycle cadence. However, we recognize that enterprise customers who manage complex environments need more time to plan and test Microsoft Edge updates. To help our enterprise customers who need an extended timeline to manage updates, Microsoft Edge offers an Extended Stable option aligned to a longer, 8-week major release cycle. This option is only available for customers with managed environments. For more information, see How to opt-in to the Extended Stable release cycle option beginning with Microsoft Edge 94
The 8-week “Extended Stable” release option for Microsoft Edge Stable delivers cumulative feature updates that align with even-numbered releases beginning with Microsoft Edge 94. Feature updates from odd-numbered releases are packaged and delivered as part of the subsequent even-numbered release.
Definitely no widgets.
I had hoped procmon might help, but nothing of interest there:
The link in Alex’s post above goes to the general release notes for version 130.0.2849.46, and here are the security update release notes for the same version:
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/deployedge/microsoft-edge-relnotes-security#october-17-2024
For new versions of Edge, many times MS will publish separate release notes for the security updates that are contained in a version update of MS Edge, which results in two separate sets of release notes for the same version number.
