Description
### Custom Node Testing
- [x] I have tried disabling custom nodes and the issue persists (see [how to disable custom nodes](https://docs.comfy.org/troubleshooting/custom-node-issues#step-1%3A-test-with-all-custom-nodes-disabled) if you need help)
### Expected Behavior
The Edge browser window should minimize to the taskbar when the minimize button is clicked, allowing the user to access other applications.
### Actual Behavior
The minimize button is unresponsive. The window remains open and on top of other applications.
### Steps to Reproduce
1. Launch ComfyUI using the `main.py` script or the provided batch file.
2. Open Microsoft Edge and navigate to the ComfyUI interface (usually `http://127.0.0.1:8188`).
3. Once the interface is fully loaded, click the minimize button (`_`) in the top-right corner of the Edge window.
4. Observe that the window does not minimize to the taskbar.
### Debug Logs
```powershell
no error logs
```
### Other
This issue seems to be specific to Microsoft Edge. The minimize function works correctly in Chrome and Firefox.

Research direction
Start by reproducing the issue with main.py or the provided batch file, then open http://127.0.0.1:8188 in Microsoft Edge and compare its behavior with Chrome and Firefox. Trace the interface entry point responsible for the loaded page; done means the Edge window minimizes normally while the other browsers continue to work.
