Windows 10: View Poll Results: Do you use Edge as your primary browser??

Aside from not figuring out the bookmark new folder creation and storage in Edge outside of imported bookmark folders after all this time ,
I just tried to right click save a web page from Edge now and it wouldn't do it but it will save an image well and copy paste works now ,it seems to load much faster lately and it reads .pdf but that new speed may just be this new PC that does everything much faster then the old one .Chrome is the default hre and firefox a strong and good alternate here that would be a good default browser as well.

Edge is *still* frequently unstable and not reliable enough for me although it can load a page very fast when it's behaving but probably not any faster than chrome or F.F. ,The UI is simple and clean but not intuitive IMO .

Edge plays Netflix 1080p where the others wont it's a DRM compliance thing but I get up to 4K HDR Netflix and 4K You Tube all that in my 4K TV in here anyway .

Edge plays some videos the other browsers wont play or buffer to much before they load or play well there are videos it plays better nothing is perfect so I have all 3 of these browsers and Chrome default .

 

I prefer Chrome. I have it on my iPad, Galaxy phone, MacBook Pro, 2 Win 10 Desktops, Nexus 7. The ability to sync all bookmarks, history, passwords...etc. on all computers/devices is a must. Firefox can do the same but does not have all of the extensions I need.

 

Using Edge almost exclusively and have been for awhile. F.F. is my secondary and I'll use Avant or Iron browsers as the mood hits. I'd say ......... 95% Edge usage overall.

 

If Edge had the toolbar at top of page the same as IE it would be easy to use being down the right hand side is a pain in the bum

 

*Thumbsand pinning it takes up waaaaay toooo much real estate.

 

I had not noticed the toolbar Lawnmower 60 mentioned, and tried to open it and check that out. But I had already unpinned Edge from my taskbar, and now it seems to have disappeared from my system--maybe I'd hurt its feelings? Anyway, I'd like to give it another look--where should I look for it, and under what name?

 

It should be under M for Microsoft Edge on the Start Menu

 

Thanks. I found and opened it, but see no sign of anything menu-like on the right side.

Also found that it won't open from the Start\Run command, and can put an icon on the taskbar, but not on the desktop.

First modern browser that makes me miss Netscape.

 

Using it, but getting tired of all the sites that stop responding and need to recover in this latest build of Edge.
If they don't sort it in the next update, I'll move to something else

 

The closest you get to a menu is the threes dashes at the right

If you want to run it from the Run command, type in microsoft-edge: and it should run fine

 

Edge as priority after they got the adblock for it. however, when i burn my nerves with the missing right-click-mouse-and-no-back-button i go crazy and go back for chrome

 

Cyberfox all the way and after trying Edge once I find it needs a few more versions to become a main browser

 

I have Edge set as my default browser for Windows because it opens pretty quick. Also, MS sometimes wants you to use their browsers to view their web pages. When I choose to surf the web, Chrome is my 1st choice. If Chrome isn't working, like now (detailed here), I use Pale Moon.

If more extensions become available for Edge, I will probably use it more.

 

I have to admit i have used a few times but chrome is my number one buddy , i have it on my tablets my phone and it keeps track of everything for me, but i like the speed and simplicity of Edge i would switch if they would get my norton toolbar and a few other extensions.

 

I hope that within a year there will be more extensions ported from the Chrome platform over to Edge. But as usual, time will tell.
