Hello @CIA_MAN 

Please remove the Add On, and also reset the browser. Make sure you export passwords, bookmarks and other data before you reset. Once its done, import all the data back to Edge. Add the extension from the Microsoft Store.

Let us know if it works or not.

Hello,

it is still a strange behaviour... on two PCs everything is working fine with the WebAdvisor and the new Edge Browser from MS... On one machine only the extension from the chrome store is working...

Strange...

Can this issue be given a higher priority please? I've got a similar problem. The Webadvisor icon is showing in the bar, but it's not active. I've tried disabling Smartscreen and all other inherence MS security option for Edge Chromium browser in case there is a clash, tried re-installing WebAdvisor too, still no luck. Works fine on Firefox.
