It's January 31st and it's still a bug :(
When will Msft fix the persistent "enter your search term" tool tip in Edge?

I just had the common problem of the "enter your search term" tool tip getting stuck and overlaying the browser screen. I don't use Edge but since Msft forces it to open when I accidentally click the silly weather icon in the task bar, it's sometimes running in the background. The tool tip is actually in a separate tab but shows up even in other browsers so is definitely a bug that should be fixed. It only goes away when you close the Edge.tab or exit Edge. My question is when is Msft going to fix this annoying issue? It makes Edge look very amateurish and confirms the generally held opinion that Msft can't make a good browser which I'm sure they don't want.

2022-01-18T19:23:05+00:00 I have the same issue using Edge (annoying "enter your search term here" box stuck on at all times). I checked to make sure I have the latest Edge updates as of 1/18/22. Does anyone know how to fix this?

2022-01-10T20:22:15+00:00 I wanted to check if you are experiencing this with the latest version we released last week. Since your company manages software updates, you might not be running the latest version. I recommend talking to your IT helpdesk since you don't have administrator rights to your work laptop.

2022-01-09T17:53:46+00:00 Not really an option since my company manages updates on this work laptop, and the issue is intermittent so I can't check if it's fixed. Was this problem addressed in this update?
