Bug Report: Issues with Spell Check and Copilot in Microsoft Edge on Fedora 41

[TauqeerAhmad5201]

Description

I am encountering two issues with Microsoft Edge on Fedora 41 (RPM version):

1. Spell Check Suggestion Issue:

   • The auto spell checker correctly identifies misspelled words and displays valid suggestions.
   • However, when I tap/click on the correct spelling from the suggestion list, no action is performed. The incorrect spelling remains unchanged.

2. Copilot Button Not Working:

   • The Copilot button located on the top right of the Edge window does not function.
   • Clicking on it does not trigger any action, and no content or sidebar appears.

I'm experiencing the same issue on Ubuntu 24.04.2 LTS using Wayland desktop manager. Clicking on the autocorrect spelling suggestion just closes the context menu and doesn't change the text.
