I don’t want to see some generic new tab page with ads on it. Hey, call me shallow but I want my very own Bruceb Favorites page to turn up all the time. Worse, there’s no way to open a new tab to a particular page. I am so dependent on LastPass that Edge is a non-starter for me for that reason alone.
Edge can share a page by sending it to OneNote, but the controls are not as good as the OneNote Clipper add-in, which is not supported yet in Edge. Examples of add-ins that are sorely missed: LastPass will not run in Edge ad blockers cannot be installed to cut down on the increasingly out-of-control ads on websites and Adobe’s Acrobat add-in is not installed to convert web pages to PDF.
In its current state, Edge is missing a long list of features that make it anywhere from inconvenient to effectively unusable, depending on which ones you care about. ( Here’s the story about why Windows 10 was shipped early.) It was polished up and mostly complete for its early debut, with Edge as the conspicuous exception, unfinished and missing basic features that are planned but not yet included. Windows 10 shipped several months earlier than originally planned. I’ll give you some tips about how to do that below. If you’re using Windows 10, I suggest doing your web browsing with Google Chrome or Internet Explorer (yes, it’s still there) until Edge is more finished, probably in October/November. It’s also not finished, and that creates some problems. (Seriously.) But Edge is actually brand new, written from the ground up to be fast and safe, as well as meeting all the current standards for web pages. The name “Edge” was chosen so Microsoft could use a similar E icon down in the taskbar. Edge is the new Microsoft web browser that replaces Internet Explorer in Windows 10.
