    How to Pin or Unpin Vertical Tabs Pane in Microsoft Edge Chromium


    Microsoft has adopted the Chromium open source project in the development of Microsoft Edge on the desktop to create better web compatibility. This new Microsoft Edge runs on the same Chromium web engine as the Google Chrome browser, offering you best in class web compatibility and performance.

    The new Chromium based Microsoft Edge is supported on all versions of Windows 7, Windows 8.1, Windows 10, Windows Server (2016 and above), Windows Server (2008 R2 to 2012 R2), and macOS.

    It's easy to end up with a ton of tabs open. The more you have open, the more difficult it becomes to find, switch between, and manage them. With vertical tabs, you can easily shift to view your tabs in a pane to the side. This allows you to easily see the titles and access controls like mute and close. It even makes it easy to reorder your tabs, with the ability to drag and drop to rearrange. When you want to focus on a specific page, you can collapse the pane. Anytime you need to switch between tabs, you can hover over the pane to see all the information you need. The new Microsoft Edge is the only browser to offer built-in vertical tab navigation allowing for a more streamlined experience.

    This tutorial will show you how to pin or unpin (collapse) the vertical tabs pane in the Chromium based Microsoft Edge.

    It's curious that here and in other media the phrase "A/B tests" is still used, according to Microsoft, they don't do "A/B tests", they do CFRs (Controlled Feature roll-outs), in a recent post about the "Vertical tabs" feature in Reddit, Missy Quarry (Community manager for Edge) clarified this once again, I remember that some time ago (on Twitter) other Microsoft employees had also clarified the difference between "A/B tests" and "controlled rollouts". I suppose that for the average user the phrase "A/B test" it's easier to understand than the phrase "controlled rollout" and that's why that phrase is still used.
