Till now, you need to manually enable and use Global Media Controls to enter Picture in Picture mode in Microsoft Edge, this is no longer required. the browser got its own button for PiP for Windows and Mac in Edge 93. It is currently rolling out along with a setting to control its appearance in the video frame.

Enable or disable the Picture in Picture button in Microsoft Edge​

1. Visit Settings > Cookies and Site Permissions > Picture in picture control

2. Toggle the switch for “ Show Picture in picture control insider video frame” to On or Off.
show picture in picture control insider the video frame setting

Version 94.0.992.31: September 24
Important

This update contains a fix for CVE-2021-37973 which has been reported by the Chromium team as having an exploit in the wild. For more information, see the Security Update Guide.
Stable channel security updates are listed here.

Feature updates
  • Microsoft Edge has completed the move to a 4-week cadence for updates. We have adopted a new 4-week release cycle for major versions. Read more here: Serving our customers more effectively with new release cycles for Microsoft Edge
  • New Extended stable option being offered. We are offering a new Extended Stable option to our managed Enterprise customers. The Extended Stable option will stay on even numbered revisions and update every 8 weeks. There will be a biweekly security update. Additional information here: How to opt-in to the Extended Stable release cycle option beginning with Microsoft Edge 94
  • Improvements to default behavior of opening MHTML files. MHTML files will continue to open in IE mode if IE mode is enabled, unless the MHTML file was saved from Microsoft Edge (using the Save As or Save Page As options in Microsoft Edge). If the file was saved from Microsoft Edge, it will now open in Microsoft Edge. This change will fix a rendering issue that was observed when opening an MHTML file in IE mode when saved from Microsoft Edge.
  • Restrict private network requests to secure contexts. Access to resources on local (intranet) networks from pages on the internet requires that those pages be delivered over HTTPS. This change is happening in the Chromium project, on which Microsoft Edge is based. For more information, navigate to the Chrome Platform Status entry. Two compatibility policies are available to support scenarios that need to preserve compatibility with non-secure pages: InsecurePrivateNetworkRequestAllowed and InsecurePrivateNetworkRequestAllowedForUrls.
  • Block mixed content downloads. Secure pages will only download files hosted on other secure pages, and downloads hosted on non-secure (non-HTTPS) pages will be blocked if initiated from a secure page. This change is happening in the Chromium project, on which Microsoft Edge is based. For more information, navigate to the Google security blog entry.
  • Enable implicit sign-in for on-premises accounts. By enabling the OnlyOnPremisesImplicitSigninEnabled policy, only on-premises accounts will be enabled for implicit sign-in. Microsoft Edge won't attempt to implicitly sign in to MSA or AAD accounts. Upgrade from on-premises accounts to AAD accounts will be stopped as well.
  • New accessibility settings page. We have brought accessibility-related settings together on a single page. You can find the new edge://settings/accessibility page under the main settings list. Here you can find settings to make the web page bigger, show a high visibility outline around the area of focus and other settings that can help improve your web browsing experience. We’ll continue to add new settings here in future versions of Microsoft Edge.
After the update this page (Here’s what’s new in Microsoft Edge) is shown:

Anyone else seeing this weird bug. All extensions are disabled, also tried refreshing page, restarting browser. Feedback sent to MS.


Update: Same issue on chrome, so could be a chromium bug or driver related.
Intel drivers: 30.0.100.9864 (Win10 21H1)
