This is happening for me too but (oddly) doesn't seem to have been flagged as a common issue...

Reported another issue which is worse than this

[haraop]

Happening here too.

[rcmaehl]

Please try the latest test build when possible:

https://nightly.link/rcmaehl/MSEdgeRedirect/workflows/MSER/0.8.0.0-dev/mser.zip

@rcmaehl

Yes, this new build doesn't create the problem anymore. However, I had to do the following to solve my problem:

1. Delete the --win-session-start from the registry
2. Reinstall mser from the zip (btw it says 0.7.5.0 in the installer, not 0.8.0.0)

[bilogic]

@rcmaehl this issue is back. I did not update or anything.

[chjohans]

I have the chrome "--win-session-start" issue too!

[mon5termatt]

[oddtwelve]

Any resolution? This just started happning today (or was it yesterday?) without updating or anything. The only thing I've done is clearing the browser. Would love to get rid of this tab, preferably without having to deal with edge :)

[rcmaehl]

I will be pushing out an update this weekend. I would have had the update out by now but I was in a car accident and have been dealing with all of that hassle between insurance, medical, car rental, and everything else.

[bilogic]

Will this be released soon? Thank you.

hope you're ok! Still waiting to see an update but definitely understand issues like that! It is a pain.

Was planning to but found a few more bugs. Trying to fix the issue in #345 first.

strange bug, haven't run into that being an issue on my side before

hope you get it fixed!

[bilogic]

Hi,

Will this be resolved soon? Thank you.

[bilogic]

@rcmaehl how can we test the fix? thanks

[simwai]

@bilogic Get the latest version I guess?

[bilogic]

and when is that dated?

[simwai]

Idk

[uffemcev]

I still have this problem on the latest version.

[bilogic]

@rcmaehl appreciate if you can fill us in on this. Thank you.

[uffemcev]

@rcmaehl any thoughts?

[rcmaehl]

@rcmaehl any thoughts?

Should be resolved in 0.7.5.1 or 0.7.5.2. Is it --win-session-start or another message?

[uffemcev]

Is it --win-session-start or another message?

--win-session-start

[bilogic]

0.7.5.1 and 0.7.5.2 fixed the --win-session-start for me.
