version 129

Microsoft Edge version 129 introduces a significant quality-of-life improvement for Windows 11 users: the ability to remove the built-in sidebar. Previously, the sidebar—packed with apps and services—could feel cluttered and intrusive. With this update, users gain greater control over their browsing space, simplifying the interface and reducing distractions. This change reflects Microsoft's ongoing effort to refine Edge based on user feedback, focusing on customization and a cleaner experience. For those who prefer a minimalist browser layout, version 129 offers a straightforward way to streamline the interface without losing access to essential features.
