I believe that bug was a showstopper last week not this week. Please source if you have found out they have not fixed it. That would be very surprising.

Someone mentioned earlier that Bug Bash is quite useless. Well, I agree. Most stuff they want to be tested works flawlessly and the rest I don't even have supporting hardware for. But yet, there are tons of bugs that affect core OS functionality that needs fixes and have even been reported multiple times. Still they get fixed 3-6 months after release, if ever.
I see absolutely NO point in these Bug Bashes as they are right now. I have a feeling they are only intended to direct people in the direction to use more of the newly MS implemented features (learning about new features), rather than actually squash bugs.
I'm currently very disappointed in the Windows Insider programme. This is also why I haven't tried any latest builds. I will resume testing once we get closer to release date, but until then, I see no point. Boring to see a VM upgrade every 3rd to 5th day, for pretty much nothing. :)
Well, nobody uses whole system and every feature, I for instance don't use Edge on regular basis so don't care much about it's development but hope that one day it would have what I want and get in FF. Than comes all that Xbox stuff that doesn't peak my interest. But all of that may be of interest for somebody else so let them test that too, who knows what else can transpire from those.
But.... in every build there's something for me too and I look forward to it.
Ever since I managed to get Edge running stable, I've been using it 99.99% of the time on both my Android and in Windows. The bookmarks manager is still total piece of garbage, and MS refuse to do anything about it. Most new features in Edge are completely useless to me. I use a browser to render web pages, and that's it. And I think Edge does a good job.
What comes to XBOX and gaming features...interestingly although my computers can't run any games, I use for instance the Game Bar for stuff it wasn't initially designed for. It's a easy to access screen and window recorder. Now I own an Xbox One X so the rest of the Windows built in XBox features are becoming more relevant.
Yeah - I do not use Edge much apart from viewing web pages and it looks far superior to Chrome. I have tried changing Chrome fonts etc and it alwYs looks "unfinished" bit Edge is crystal clear. I still find Edge has minor iiritations eg cut and paste seems to be a bit temperamental. I keep chrome mostly for its bookmarking across different platforms is virtually seamless.
