Microsoft Edge is the first browser to support Accelerated App Launch on Windows. With Edge 150+ and Windows 11 25H2/26H1/26H2 plus KB5127936 or later, most users get about 15% faster warm launches, and up to about 33% under heavy multitasking. The feature notifies an already-running Edge process directly instead of using an intermediary search step; it does not speed a cold start when Edge is not running.
After September 2026 security updates, some Always On VPN profiles using automatic protocol selection could stay stuck on Connecting or show “The specified port is already in use.” Microsoft briefly marked the issue Resolved on Oct 13 then withdrew that claim. KB5127936 (Oct 28 preview for 25H2/26H2) lists the Always On VPN fix; IT can mitigate by forcing SSTP only or IKEv2 only.
After the October 2026 security update KB5127648, some PCs could not turn Smart App Control back on (option grayed out). Microsoft fixed it for Windows 11 25H2 and 26H2 with KB5127936 (preview dated Oct 28; updates on/after Oct 27). 24H2 still uses the documented workaround path.
On Windows 11 24H2 and later, enterprise Windows settings backup and restore can show a restore summary of personalization settings and Store apps — about one hour after restore, for seven days.
Optional preview KB5127936 (October 28, 2026) adds a faster, customizable File Explorer context menu for Windows 11 25H2 and 26H2 — gradual rollout.
