Error while running "waitForElementVisible" command for Microsoft Edge on nightwatchj.s - microsoft-edge

Question

When I trying run test in Microsoft edge
browser starting and page is loading, but then I got error :
TypeError: Error while running "waitForElementVisible" command: Error while trying to create HTTP request for "/wd/hub/session/8bf67432a94d18e24f88493fd249c629/element/[object Object]/displayed": Request path contains unescaped characters
For Chrome and Firefox test works fine
Test code
module.exports = {
'Demo test Ecosia.org': function (browser) {
browser
.url('https://www.ecosia.org/')
.waitForElementVisible('body')
.assert.titleContains('Ecosia')
.assert.visible('input[type=search]')
.setValue('input[type=search]', 'nightwatch')
.assert.visible('button[type=submit]')
.click('button[type=submit]')
.assert.containsText('.mainline-results', 'Nightwatch.js')
.end();
}
};
My nightwatch.conf.js
const seleniumServer = require('selenium-server');
const edgeDriver = require('edgedriver');
const chromeDriver = require('chromedriver');
const geckoDriver = require('geckodriver');

As you're using the new Edge which is based on chromium, I think you can refer to the same setting of Chrome.
The same error occurs when using Chrome can be fixed by adding "w3c": false. So you could add the following line to fix issue in Edge Chromium:
edgeOptions: { "w3c": false }
