Microsoft Edge Favorites Bar

Anyone know if it's possible to only show the icons in the favorites bar, and get rid of the labels?

Try renaming your favorites' names to an empty name. (Not sure though if Edge will accept an empty name)

Thought about that, but wanted to see if there was a setting im missing like in IE.

Best idea I've come up with so far after searching forums for an answer is to rename all my faves in the bar to the capital letter "I" , so it looks like icons separated by a thin bar. Not a true answer but its a uniform look and I can now fit a good 20-25 icons on my favorites bar until they give us the true option. Hope that helps.

Edge is obviously featureless and option less at this stage --- best thing to do now is to either deal with it until further feature updates come or use another browser in the mean time.

It blows my mind that Microsoft went through the trouble of trying to start fresh and offer a new fast and appealing browser that people would want to use --- but instead they give us a browser that does significantly less than Internet Explorer does, and is embarrassed by its competition. They basically should have shipped Windows 10 with no browser and just asked the user Chome or Firefox at first logon ---- because well, that's about how bad Edge is at this point. Benchmarks don't mean anything when the browser offers nothing but basic web browsing capabilities.

That's actually the best suggestion/reply so far. Thanx!!
