  1. Edge General or Beta for default!


    Hi, I started using the Edge Beta version a few months ago. Is it best to leave the Edge General version as the "Default" browser? I made the Beta version the default but was unsure if that was the correct thing to do! I also open the General version of Edge and update it occasionally. Just a thought!Brian Windows 10 22H2
