The 1st is 'Seasonal' and a wee bit silly... can make it 'snow' for about 10 seconds 🤣

The 2nd may really excite some or even many Users.

1st, the snowing effect:
Hit the snow button indicated

And here is the 2nd. This makes the NTP, absolutely 100%, 'clean'❕
See the <--> indicated at the bottom-right

Click it and the NTP becomes...

This 👇 is using a downloaded & saved image; not a selection from available Themes...

NB: The <--> will not appear if a Custom Theme is used. It does work/is there for backgrounds created with MS Designer.
Here 👇 are examples of Edge NTP backgrounds created with MS Designer...

    Oh well, too bad, so sad...

    Seems these 2 items were literally exclusive to the Christmas/New Year Season. They appeared sometime around Christmas and diappeared sometime around New Years.

    Don't care about the snow effect, BUT sure did like the Expand Background <-->; I am missing that one, sorry it is gone and not returning (not even without the snow). Seems the idea was, clear the background and have it 'snow' over an (in theory, a Seasonal) image for 10 seconds. Likely will be back, again, when the "Holiday Season" is back, again 🤣
