Edge has the same "latest version" on both Windows 10 and Windows 11. Just to answer your question regarding Windows 11 Edge. The format is open and royalty-free, so it can't be a licensing blocker.Įdge remains the only major browser that lacks AVIF support. So we can only speculate as to the reasoning given the silence from Microsoft, and the fully functioning implementations elsewhere. Of course, this makes no sense because other Chromium browsers and Firefox support AVIF just fine on Windows. Unfortunately, currently Microsoft Edge does not support avif format files due to design. The closest I can find to an official comment from Microsoft is from XuDong Peng-MSFT in this answer, in which they give this rather cryptic and vague reason: Suggestions of a flag to enable AVIF support appear to have been hallucinated - they do not work, nor are they documented by Microsoft anywhere.
The AV1 Video Extension does not enable AVIF image support in Edge. Microsoft have not stated anywhere they are working on it. Microsoft have no official status on AVIF support. I cannot find any official word from Microsoft on it. The correct answer here is that we simply don't know as of. See here: on licensing things to clear up. It is a licensing issue holding things up.
