    Add a button to the address bar.

    I would like to add the Zoom button to my new Edge address bar. Have found the following how to do it on the web but they don't work like the instructions say.

    How to manage the address bar buttons on Microsoft Edge

    To customize the buttons that appear next to the address bar, use these steps:

    1. Open Microsoft Edge.
    2. Click the Settings and more menu button on the top-right corner. (I assume that is the three dots in a row)
    3. Select the Show in toolbar sub-menu. (Don't see 'Show in toobar)
    4. Click the action button that you want to add or remove from the toolbar.

      Thanks for any help.

      Almost forgot, W10 ver 1909.

  3. Windows Explorer Address Bar Height in Windows 10

    Hello,

    How do you reduce the height of the Windows Explorer Address bar. For example, my address bar appears as:


    Why has my address bar increased in height by like 1.5x in the last update? Can I reverse... 4cc0c38f-075f-4a85-ba71-f2b862be2e76?upload=true.png


    As you can see, there is a large amount of padding between the text ("My Computer" in this case) and top/bottom borders.

    I've tried adjusting resolution and the scaling settings. I'm running Windows 10, all current updates are applied.

    Have verified on two other laptops I have and the padding issue does not exist on either one.

    Issue only appears in the Address bar, height is good everywhere else.

    Thanks for any help!
