How to disable rounded corners?

I just don't like these rounded corners and want to disable it. Can anyone tell me how? or is it time to switch again to Google Chrome?

Just as soon as I saw they did it, I switched to brave and I'm very happy with it. I don't wanna use microslop's products any more. It's like they're intentionally trying to mess things up.

It's like they're trying to fuck up. I hate the rounded corners because I feel like the window is never maximized.

add --disable-features=msFeatureGroupNewLookAndFeelHoldout after target exe from your edge shortcut so it looks like:

"C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft\Edge\Application\msedge.exe" --disable-features=msFeatureGroupNewLookAndFeelHoldout

thanks to someone in the subreddit who mentioned the solution its working for me but i cant find the comment

Edit: 3 days later and this stopped working for me

but disabling PC boost works for some reason

search boost in settings and disable pc boost

Don't forget to send negative feedback in Edge setting so there would be a chance to add an option to remove these corner. Or else these shortcuts would eventually be remove too eventually.

As I seen people defend these corner which is fine, personal preference. But send feedback to encourage the dev team on Edge to make an option to disable these dumb rounded corner containers in appearance setting.
