Version: 1.62.3
Commit: ccbaa2d
Date: 2021-11-17T08:00:36.721Z
Electron: 13.5.2
Chrome: 91.0.4472.164
Node.js: 14.16.0
V8: 9.1.269.39-electron.0
OS: Linux x64 5.13.0-19-generic
Steps to Reproduce:

1. Create a empty directory testedge and place the following file into testedge/.vscode/launch.json

   {
       "configurations": [
           {
               "name": "Edge Google",
               "type": "pwa-msedge",
               "request": "launch",
               "url": "https://www.google.com"
           }
       ]
   }
   
   

2. code testedge
3. Launch debug session named "Edge Google"
4. Nothing happens

Expected Behavior:

• When Edge is installed, it should be opened
• When Edge is not installed, it should throw some errors

Tested with:

• vscode 1.62.3, Edge 97.0.1072.13 (microsoft-edge is in PATH and running it works), Ubuntu Jammy (Linux alex-p330 5.13.0-19-generic #19-Ubuntu SMP Thu Oct 7 21:58:00 UTC 2021 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux). Can reproduce
• vscode 1.62.3, No edge installation on macOS 11.4 arm64. Can reproduce
• vscode 1.56.0, Edge 97.0.1072.13, Ubuntu Jammy. Cannot find edge:

But with same results.

Facing this issue on Mac Big Sur (V 11.6.1)
MS Edge Version 96.0.1054.34 (Official build) (x86_64)

Yes, we don't have Edge support on Linux yet since it was not initially released on Linux. I am on vacation for the next week but would happy accept a PR here: https://github.com/microsoft/vscode-js-debug-browsers

So do you support Edge on macOS? Because we also encountered this issue on macOS as I wrote.

@connor4312 I think this is not only a feature request. It is also a bug report. Because if you don't support Edge on macOS/Linux, you should throw error or some popup to tell the user rather than displays nothing.

I think the expected behavior should be what 1.56.0 does. Is this a regression?

@connor4312 - I believe it's a bug on MacOS after the VSCode update. Previously the debugger used work fine on MS Edge.
Below is the previously working configuration -
"configurations": [
{
"name": "Launch Edge",
"request": "launch",
"type": "edge",
"url": "https://localhost:3000",
"webRoot": "${workspaceFolder}"
}]

I found a workaround.
Just proceed with debugging in chrome to generate the configuration file and change the type parameter in the configuration file to Edge.
New settings:
"type": "pwa-msedge"
