[Bug] Live public extension cannot be found in Microsoft Edge Add-ons search #735

Closed

Description

Description

My extension Clip to Markdown has been successfully published to Microsoft Edge Add-ons.

The extension status in Partner Center is Live, its visibility is Public, and it is available in 241 of 241 markets.

The extension can also be opened and installed normally through its direct Microsoft Edge Add-ons URL.

However, it cannot be found in Microsoft Edge Add-ons search, even when searching for the exact extension name:

Clip to Markdown

Extension information

  • Extension name: Clip to Markdown
  • Version: 0.2.0
  • Published / updated date: August 17, 2026
  • Status: Live
  • Visibility: Public
  • Markets: 241 / 241
  • Store URL: [paste the direct extension URL here]

Steps to reproduce

  1. Open Microsoft Edge Add-ons.
  2. Search for Clip to Markdown.
  3. Check the search results.

Actual behavior

The extension does not appear in the search results.

However, the direct Store URL works correctly, and users can install the extension normally.

Expected behavior

Since the extension is Live, Public, and available in all markets, it should be discoverable through Microsoft Edge Add-ons search.

Additional information

I have confirmed that:

  • The extension is Live.
  • Visibility is set to Public.
  • All 241 markets are enabled.
  • The Store listing is accessible through the direct URL.
  • The extension can be installed successfully.
  • Search terms have been configured.

This issue appears similar to previously reported cases where an extension is accessible via direct link but cannot be found through Store search.

Could you please check whether this extension has been correctly indexed by Microsoft Edge Add-ons search?

    I've had the same problem before, but it went back to normal after waiting a few days.

    Same issue here. I just experienced this as well. Has anyone found a solution or response from the Edge team yet?

    I can see that the most recent submission, that was done on 8/18/2026 at 12:08:02 AM, successfully passed review on 8/20/2026 at 5:05:54 PM. However, the extension is not appearing in store search results when searched by name. I have shared this issue with the relevant team for further investigation and will provide an update once I receive any feedback from them. Thank you for your patience and understanding.

    Hi Akhmad Hafidz Ardianto (@Hzkun001) The extension is now successfully appearing in search results when searched by its name "Clip to Markdown" on the Microsoft Edge Add-ons store. As the reported issue has been resolved, I am closing this case. Thank you for your time and patience throughout the investigation.
