Hello,
I am having a problem showing png picture that suppose to be transparant in Ms. Edge. Any clue why my png file is not transparant in edge?
Check this website: www.fresway.com in Firefox and Ms. Edge.
On Ms. Edge, the transparant layer is no longer transparant I wonder why?
Could you post a screenshot of the problem and the actual .png file? Hard to tell what's going on on mobile
Cek the website right away through pc. www.fresway.com - you can see the beem is not transparant on Ms. Edge but transparant on Firefox.
I don't use Windows. You've probably got the old version cached or something, the latest IE and Edge have supported alpha-PNG files for years.
I am using :
Microsoft Edge 40.15063.674.0 - 2017 with Windows 10.
Hey,
Indeed a known problem, backup your system back in time (1 week back) and it should be alright.

Please supply a link or reference for this. Until then nobody will be naive enough to spend hours restoring backups on just your say-so.
JamesCherrill,
If the person needs a problem solved they would do anything but sure ---> here you go

This was top of the page in the first google search I tried.

That article is about the transparent PNG fix we used to need in the past for Internet Explorer 6 and below.
Edge supports alpha transparency, so there must be something else causing this.
Edit: I also don't have Windows and I don't have my Virtual Machine up and running, so can't check at the moment too.
Just for this I opened that URL in Opera and the image had a video play button on the left rainbow effect.
Maybe that's not a PNG at all?
OK, opened up the source and there is some animated thing there that has a play button but here's the PNG that Edge didn't work with:

I need to see if the PNG is using indexed color or not. Why?

You missed the point. How to restore a backup on an absolete version of Windows is irrelevant. The reference I wanted was to justify "Indeed a known problem".
