Angular 2 not working with MS Edge

Question

I get script errors when I'm loading my app in MS Edge. However Firefox, Chrome, IE11 all work, except for Edge...

Here's a screenshot of the console:

See here:

     _parent: null,
     _properties: { },
     _zoneDelegate: { },
     name: "<root>",
     parent: null
   }
}

What I also noticed was the Argument not optional in zone.js on line 556

which is in

 if (NativePromise) {
    patchThen(NativePromise);
    if (typeof global['fetch'] !== 'undefined') {
        var fetchPromise = global['fetch']();
        // ignore output to prevent error;
        fetchPromise.then(function () { return null; }, function () { return null; });
        if (fetchPromise.constructor != NativePromise) {
            patchThen(fetchPromise.constructor);
        }
    }
}

and the specific line is:

var fetchPromise = global['fetch']();

Then there is the worrying error: "Could not complete the operation due to error 80020101"

There are a lot of solutions to that problem, removing double slashed comments, or html comments inside script tags, but none of them work.

Error 80020101

Does anyone have a clue?

I'm using latest MS insider preview Edge 39.14915.

I fixed this issue by updating zone.js from 0.6.21 => 0.6.25, available on CDN here https://unpkg.com/[email protected]?main=browser or from their github repository.
