1 year agoIt’s only in the Canary version for now.
Although the feature sounds exciting, recent Microsoft Edge Canary updates have provided more information on how image enhancement works.
I’ve only seen it on some “insider” builds for Windows 11, so unless it was pushed publicly in the past few days you shouldn’t see it.
This post’s title is misleading anyway. It’s not enabled by default, and only sends URLs of “large images” that don’t require any form of authentication. Considering where I work, I can’t say much more than that. If you knew where I work, you’d trust my word over some other random people on the internet.
