Microsoft Edge users have encountered a problem where web apps freeze due to a bug in version 153 of the browser.

This issue can cause a window to become unresponsive, making it impossible to interact with it using either the mouse or keyboard.

The bug was introduced recently and has affected many users who rely on web apps for their work.

Microsoft has acknowledged the problem and provided a workaround: rolling back to version 152 of Microsoft Edge.

To do this, users must disable Microsoft Edge updates through the local Group Policy Editor, download the MSI file for the previous version from Microsoft's website, and then run the rollback command using the Windows command prompt.
