Microsoft Edge Dev got an update this week that brings the browser to version 119.0.21.32. The update adds a handful of new features, such as a new update recommended action in browser essentials and a flag that lets you auto-group tabs. The browser also gained a new tab group icon in the quick actions menu and the ability to add a page to favorites through the right-click menu.
While none of these features are groundbreaking, they add up to improve the overall Edge experience. Microsoft doesn't have a Tech Community post for this build yet, but Neowin grabbed the change log from Edge.
