MICROSOFT EDGE, THE NEW FREE WEB BROWSER FOR WINDOWS

Microsoft Edge is the web browser developed by Microsoft. It was first released
in 2015 as the successor to Internet Explorer and is based on Google's Chromium.
Edge offers a fast and efficient browsing experience, with robust security
features and deep integration with other Microsoft products and services. 


MAIN FEATURES OF MICROSOFT EDGE

Microsoft Edge serves as a web browser, providing a platform to access, explore,
and manage content on the Internet. Its main uses and functions include:


 * Use of Chromium: Since 2019, Edge uses the Chromium rendering engine, which
   improves compatibility and performance with a wide variety of websites.
 * Enhanced security: Edge offers advanced protection against online threats
   such as phishing and malware. By disabling Just-In-Time (JIT) JavaScript
   compilation, the attack surface for exploits that can abuse this technique is
   reduced.
 * Performance: The browser is designed to be fast and resource-efficient,
   enhancing the overall browsing experience. Edge is capable of things like tab
   suspension, keeping the browser in the background with minimal resources, or
   enabling Efficiency mode.
 * Integration with Office: Edge is deeply integrated with other Microsoft
   services and products, such as Cortana, Office, and OneDrive. It has features
   like Office Viewer, which allows you to open Word, Excel, and PowerPoint
   documents with a simple click.
 * Device syncing: It allows users to sync their history, bookmarks, passwords,
   and other data across different devices through a Microsoft account.
 * Extensions: Edge is compatible with a wide variety of extensions, available
   in both the Chrome Web Store and the Microsoft Store.
 * Immersive Reader mode: It offers a reading mode that simplifies web pages,
   removing ads and distractions for a more comfortable reading experience.
   Within the Reader mode, you can use tools like Read Aloud or Reading
   Preferences, among others.
 * Multiplatform availability: Currently, we can use Microsoft Edge on different
   operating systems such as Windows, macOS, iOS, and Android. However, to enjoy
   the latest version within Windows, we need to be on Windows 10 or later.

These features make Microsoft Edge a modern and versatile browser, on par with
competitors like Google Chrome, Opera, or Mozilla Firefox. 


GET TO KNOW THE NEW BING

Bing has always been known as the alternative to Google, but thanks to
artificial intelligence, the search engine has gained great relevance. Now,
Microsoft Edge integrates the new Bing chat in its sidebar, the AI-powered
search engine. 

Through the Bing chat, we will be using GPT-4, the latest available generation
of the engine that powers the popular ChatGPT. Thanks to this feature, Bing is
capable of summarizing content pages, exploring various topics, explaining and
comparing products, etc. You just have to type your request in the Bing chat:
the search engine will do all the work for you. 


DO MORE WITH COPILOT

Newer versions of the program will be integrated with Microsoft 365’s AI-powered
assistant, Copilot, through the sidebar. Through this new add-on, multi-tasking
is going to be seamless and achievable. The handy companion tool will scrape
relevant data on the page you are currently visiting and use that to complete
other tasks. For instance, you can ask the bot to complete a summary of the
workday’s events and it will go through sent emails and other vital information
sources to wrap something up for you.


STREAMLINED REDESIGN

Shedding its bulky shell, Microsoft Edge sports a sleek, modular design that
prioritizes focus and AI integration. The new user interface promises a
clutter-free workspace for minimalists with easy profile access and a softer
aesthetic that blends with modern operating systems. With ongoing AI expansion,
the browser sees a level-up browsing experience with smarter search suggestions,
personalized content curation, or even AI-powered ad-blocking.


THE BEST VERSION OF MICROSOFT'S BROWSER

Microsoft is determined to shake off the bad reputation that Internet Explorer
gave them through Edge. The folks at Redmond have managed to make Edge one of
the best browsers you can use today. Its familiar interface, compatibility with
extensions, commitment to security, and the new Bing make Edge a worthy rival to
consider against Google Chrome.

   What do I have to say about MEdge? Well, I am far away from being good with
   technology, but this browser definitely does not match even my standards.
   Everyone who has it - just delete and do not bother. If a browser can not
   even emergency-save the tabs and docs after shutting down? Excuse me. How
   much MORE useless this thing can be? For the developers - I am just sorry for
   you, also tell us: how does it feels -to be absolutely unsuccessful in what
   you are doing? Cause that is exactly what you: you have failed developing
   this.

   I have an MIS degree. Edge is the absolute worse POS software/browser on the
   market. I "force delete" it every time I get a new computer. What it lacks is
   user definable parameters. It is clumsy to use and just doesn't stack to some
   even as low end as Firefox. Microsoft is just not in the browser and should
   stay out of it. Just concentrate on what you do best. My rating is one star.

   From the comments I read here, it appears that most of the "Edge" users are
   illiterate. :) Perhaps that's a good reason for sticking with
   Chrome.</p> More

   I don't use Edge but the office manager of the company I work for does. I am
   a web application developer and am facing some serious issue with Edge. The
   biggest one is web page cache management. Edge won't reload the page no
   matter what the end user does. Now I'm stuck getting creative just to b get a
   dynamic page to load the newest version every time. Seems Edge is ignoring
   meta tag directive to reload the page not cache it.

In Softonic we scan all the files hosted on our platform to assess and avoid any
potential harm for your device. Our team performs checks each time a new file is
uploaded and periodically reviews files to confirm or update their status. This
comprehensive process allows us to set a status for any downloadable file as
follows:


Clean

It’s extremely likely that this software program is clean.

WHAT DOES THIS MEAN?

We have scanned the file and URLs associated with this software program in more
than 50 of the world's leading antivirus services; no possible threat has been
detected.


Warning

This software program is potentially malicious or may contain unwanted bundled
software.

WHY IS THE SOFTWARE PROGRAM STILL AVAILABLE?

Based on our scan system, we have determined that these flags are possibly false
positives.

WHAT IS A FALSE POSITIVE?

It means a benign program is wrongfully flagged as malicious due to an overly
broad detection signature or algorithm used in an antivirus program.


Blocked

It’s highly probable this software program is malicious or contains unwanted
bundled software.

WHY IS THIS SOFTWARE PROGRAM NO LONGER AVAILABLE IN OUR CATALOG?

Based on our scan system, we have determined that these flags are likely to be
real positives.

We’d like to highlight that from time to time, we may miss a potentially
malicious software program. To continue promising you a malware-free catalog of
programs and apps, our team has integrated a Report Software feature in every
catalog page that loops your feedback back to us.

Flag any particular issues you may encounter and Softonic will address those
concerns as soon as possible.
