Windows 10: How do I get Edge tab/page previews back?

For a while I had a new feature in the Edge browser ---- previews of new pages / tabs. It has disappeared. Can anyone tell me how do I get it back?

Edge browser preview issue

For a while I had a new feature in the Edge browser ---- a preview of new pages / tabs. It has disappeared. How do I get it back?

 

How do I write a Reminder note with a stylus in Cortana?

Regarding Casting from Edge. Is it the case that I would not see see a menu item if I do not have a suitable casting device attached? I only have Chromecast.



But also, my Edge browser is missing the tab preview feature. Hovering over a tab only brings up the 'title' of the tab which is already visible --- there is no preview of the page.

 

The Tab preview option is not an optional feature and, since Edge is such an integral part of W10, you probably have some system file corruption. I would do the following:

1. Try the System file checker
2. If necessary follow up with the DISM repair
3. If 1&2 do not fix it you may need to do a repair install with an in-place upgrade

 

I'd like to know how you got rid of em!

 

Thanks for the replies. I will try SFC / DISM. For reasons discussed (to death) a repair install is not a practical option for me.

 

You could also try reinstalling Edge:Microsoft Edge - Reinstall and Re-register in Windows 10 - Windows 10 Forums

 

I am a bit wary of using those Powershell commands at the moment. Until I hear otherwise I am steering clear of them as I understand there is a high risk that the apps do not restore properly.

 

Thanks for letting me know, I wasn't aware of that.

 

SFC and DISM did not resolve the problem. Whereas " you may need to do a repair install with an in-place upgrade" is not an option for me "reinstalling Edge" itself might well be --- I have just found a good YouTube video dealing with it --- but using the Powershell re-register App Packages command is something to avoid at present, as has been said.
