    I contacted Microsoft direct via live chat and there is no Microsoft Edge 25 but there is the Anniversary coming out next month

    Microsoft Edge is used with Windows 10

    I'll move when Edge justifies it by doing everything Firefox can do and clearly doing it all better.

    Looking forward to the additions. Have watched developments keenly.

    Having said that, I used Chrome yesterday because I need to use an extension for the first time in about 3 months. And it was really not a pleasant experience! I am so used to Edge doing the basics well ......

    Edge is a piece of garbage.
    Without a doubt this is the worst browser to ever be released on a desktop. I just updated to 14379 or whatever the current flavor of the month is, and Edge still doesn't work. I was unable to move even a simple bookmark. This is typical of what is wrong with Windows 10 over all. Thank god Microsoft doesn't plan on releasing another version of Windows, because they will never get this one fixed.

    Edge works just fine. What do you mean by "I was unable to move even a simple bookmark"?

    The Poster hates Windows 10 and Edge
    Always slags it off so I cant see why he is even a tester if he hates it so much.
    I myself am the same as you
    Works ok and have never had any problems with opening tabs or bookmarks.
    IE 11 used to give me hassle all the time, Edge no hassle at all

    I guess I assume that persons who become Insiders are prepared to experiment and live on the "Bleeding Edge" ( Pun intended *chuckle)

    If I had a spare non- production PC, that I can afford to just play with, I would also be an insider. Yes moving to Edge has required me to review what I "thought" was a good operating procedure regarding a browser, but once that hurdle is overcome, I started to appreciate the simpler working style of MS Edge.

    Double standards again

    If you dont like negative comments about it, then stop doing the same about IE
    Your comments are just as bad as ones that are negative about Edge

    Actually, Edge is improving quite a bit!
    It's functionality, (on Desktops anyway), as far as mouse/keyboard focus, and the like, is where it sucks.
