    MSDN_Geek we recently made a fix for the showmodaldialog issue in the latest Canary.  If you can test it there, it should work for you.  That fix will eventually make its way to you when your version of Edge hits version 82.  As for the STATUS_ACCESS_VIOLATION issue, are you running any Forcepoint software by any chance?  We've got a known issue where having Forcepoint software installed will cause this to happen.

The issue is reproducible on the latest Edge Version 80.0.361.66 (Official build) (64-bit).

Issue:

To reproduce the issue, the user when moves to another window or uses Alt+Tab, and then comes to the modal-dialog window, the Modal-dialog window is no more visible. It take numerous tries and the short key Alt+Esc to find the Modal window.

This is causing user behavior impact and a blocker, before we release the Edge browser with compatibility to the users community.

 

Microsoft Edge Chromium Team, kindly help!

    josh_bodner, Thanks for the update!

    Yes, we are using forcepoint. Further, looking forward to the release of the stable version 82 and i will check on that. Do you have any clue for the release cycle or the date when the changes will be in the stable version?

    josh_bodner, can you help me confirm if the issue got fixed in v80 release? This will be helpful in rolling out to few of our internal users.  The issue for the Modal dialog is not occurring on version Version 80.0.361.111 (Official build) (64-bit).

    However the issue existed in the version 80.0.361.62 as reported earlier.
