Hi All,
Is anyone able to spy the web notifications in MS Edge?
In IE the web notifications are displayed in separate windows which we were able to spy either with Browser mode or by creating a windows object and attaching to the it. But I am unable to do so in MS Edge, the notification doesn't appear in separate window but like below:

Hi Manish,
Yes this will be challenge sometimes. Also, understood that this pop-up/notification will appear when MS Edge is killed instead of smooth exit/close.
Follow below steps for opening MS Edge after kill:
1. Launch MS Edge (with pop-up/notification)
2. Activate MS Edge window and send Ctrl +W --> this will smooth exit MS Edge
3. Launch again MS Edge --> This time no notification/pop-up message will appear
Hope this works for you.

Hi Manish,
Thanks for the update.
The above screenshot is just an example of how we get messages in MS Edge. In general is there a setting or a way that we can get the web notifications in a separate pop-up like in IE, we need to take appropriate actions as per the notification generated and read them as well then just sending the click on the highlighted button.

Hi Manish,
Thanks for sharing detailed info. So far, I've not came across any such setting in MS Edge. As we know, MS Edge is Chromium based which is an open-source codebase for a web browser, principally developed and maintained by Google. Not sure if we will get something what we had in IE 😊
