Could someone tell me when MS changed the way favorites are accessed in Edge Chromium. It used to be horizontal and now it's back to all vertical. I haven't seen any updates in the last few days, but it just changed overnight.
Well, it's a little hard to do a screenshot, since it no longer opens favorites with horizontal display. Mine is the same way yours is, but before you didn't have to click on anything. You just place the cursor over 'favorites' and a section pops up and then you move your cursor over the next item and another section pops up where you would click on the item that you want.
This change in the favorites menu was announced a few months ago, what Microsoft is looking for is that the favorites menu is the same as that of Edge legacy, you can read more about these changes here:
Introducing the new favorites experience in Microsoft Edge
I recently discovered how to disable the new flyout menus (Favorites, History, Downloads and Collections), you simply have to add a command line flag at the end of the target field in the properties of the shortcut:
--disable-features=msHub
When you open Edge from that modified shortcut, all the menus will be the same as before.
