    How to Disable or Enable Performance Mode in Microsoft Edge


    It is not a secret that Microsoft is going all out to make their browser, Microsoft Edge, the best in the business. For that, it is rolling out updates with new features and one of them is “Performance Mode“. However, this feature is in testing mode and is only available in Microsoft Edge Canary, as of now – but will be rolled out to the Stable version soon.

    The sole aim of this feature is to optimize your CPU, RAM, and battery to give you a long-lasting battery without compromising on speed. The results look promising but we will have to wait and see how well will this feature age.

    Microsoft has already given Edge users a feature called Sleeping Tabs. Sleeping Tabs are meant to release system resources for inactive tabs. However, if you use activate Performance Mode, the timeout for Sleeping Tabs will be locked at 5 minutes.

    If you are a laptop user, you should definitely enable Performance Mode as it can help in improving battery life and performance. As for a desktop user, it can be helpful but the difference in performance won’t be as drastic.

    How to Enable or Disable Tab Groups Collapse in Microsoft Edge

    Microsoft has adopted the Chromium open source project in the development of Microsoft Edge on the desktop to create better web compatibility. This new Microsoft Edge runs on the same Chromium web engine as the Google Chrome browser, offering you best in class web compatibility and performance.

    The new Chromium based Microsoft Edge is supported on all versions of Windows 7, Windows 8.1, Windows 10, Windows Server (2016 and above), Windows Server (2008 R2 to 2012 R2), and macOS.

    You can enable the Tab Groups experimental flag in Microsoft Edge to allow users to organize tabs into visually distinct groups, e.g. to separate tabs associated with different tasks.

    Tab Groups includes the following features:
    • Add tab to new or existing group
    • Remove tab from group
    • Name or rename group
    • Open new tab in group
    • Ungroup tabs in a group
    • Close group to remove group and all added tabs
    Starting with the Microsoft Edge Canary 89.0.722.0 version , you can now enable the Tab Groups Collapse experimental flag in Microsoft Edge to allow a tab group to be collapsible and expandable, if tab groups are enabled.

    If you enable Tab Groups Collapse, you can click/tap on the tab group name to toggle collapse and expand of the tab group.

    This tutorial will show you how to enable or disable Tab Groups Collapse in the Chromium based Microsoft Edge in Windows 7, Windows 8, or Windows 10.
