How to disable w3c in MS Edge webdriver options in selenium?

@RJ RD ,

From your code sample, it looks like you are using JAVA to automate the Edge chromium-browser using the Selenium web driver.

I suggest you try to make a test with the code example below that may help you to disable w3c in Edge web driver.

System.setProperty("webdriver.edge.driver", "Your_path_here\\msedgedriver.exe"); //modify path here...  
EdgeOptions edgeOptions = new EdgeOptions();  
DesiredCapabilities capabilities = new DesiredCapabilities();  
          
capabilities.setCapability(EdgeOptions.CAPABILITY, edgeOptions);  
capabilities.setCapability("w3c", false);  
edgeOptions.merge(capabilities);         
  
WebDriver driver = new EdgeDriver(edgeOptions);   
driver.get("https://Your_site_address_here"); //Modify URL here...  
  
System.out.println(capabilities.getCapability("w3c")); //Getting the value of w3c to verify it.  

You can see that after setting the w3c capability to false, I try to check its value to verify whether it is false or not. On my side, I am getting the correct results.

Please note that in my above test I am using msedgedriver_87.0.644.4 and selenium-java-4.0.0-alpha-7.
