Microsoft Edge
About Microsoft Edge
Microsoft Edge is Microsoft's web browser, rebuilt on the open-source Chromium project and released in its new form in January 2020. It ships with Windows 11 and Windows 10, and is the only browser Microsoft provides in Windows 11.
On Windows, Edge integrates tightly with Microsoft accounts to sync favorites, passwords and settings. It includes Copilot for asking questions about web pages, an Internet Explorer mode for legacy sites and intranet apps, vertical tabs, split screen and workspaces. Because it is Chromium-based, most Chrome extensions also work in Edge. Microsoft says Edge will keep receiving updates on Windows 10 22H2 until at least October 2028.
