Microsoft Edge Version 126.0.2592.13 brings bug fixes and performance improvements

Microsoft released Microsoft Edge version 126.0.2592.13 to the Beta Channel for Edge Insiders. This version includes feature updates such as an AI theme generator, which generates images for browser themes.

IT admins can now manage the security of their browsers with ease. In addition to this, you get a copilot summarization notification in Reading mode. You will also see policy updates, bug fixes, and performance enhancement.

Here is what the release notes say:

Feature updates

  • AI theme generator. Microsoft Edge will include an AI theme generator, that allows users to input a text prompt and generate a series of images to preview as browser themes. Applying the theme includes setting the generated image on the Edge new tab page and applying the image’s dominant color to the browser frame. Admins can control availability to this feature using the AIGenThemesEnabled policy. Note: This feature is a controlled feature rollout. If you don’t see this feature, check back as we continue our rollout.
  • Security protection controls in the Microsoft Edge management service. The Microsoft Edge management service will provide admins with a dedicated experience to manage specific settings that help improve the security posture of their managed browser instances. Note: This experience is in public preview and can be accessed by opting in to targeted release in the Microsoft 365 admin center.
  • Copilot summarization notification. The feature displays an Omnibox notification when users enter into a reading mode eligible page in Edge and offers them the option to open Copilot in the sidebar to generate a summary of the content. Note: This feature is a controlled feature rollout. If you don’t see this feature, check back as we continue our rollout.

Policy updates

Obsoleted policies

  • MathSolverEnabled – Let users snip a Math problem and get the solution with a step-by-step explanation in Microsoft Edge (obsolete)
  • ImmersiveReaderGrammarToolsEnabled – Enable Grammar Tools feature within Immersive Reader in Microsoft Edge (obsolete)

You can download Microsoft Edge Beta from the official Edge Insider website. Version 126 is expected to be released publicly in June.

If you encounter any problems while using the new version, you can report them through the Feedback Hub app, which you can open by pressing Windows + F.

In case you want to try the new features before they are released to the general public, you will have to join the Edge Insider Program.
