Microsoft's dirty gulf to promote Edge

Edge, Chrome or Firefox? Microsoft is reportedly trying out a new change for the upcoming version of Windows 10. This change will annoy anyone using a different browser from Microsoft Edge.

Let's see why: Η he revealed that "we will begin testing a new feature that will open any link in the Windows Mail application that opens in Microsoft Edge."Microsoft

This change means that even if you have set Chrome or Firefox as your default program on Windows 10, the company will ignore it and force you to see Edge when you do to a link within the Mail application.

Obviously this is a ridiculous change, similar to Microsoft forcing Cortana users to use Bing search and open results in Microsoft Edge instead of which are set as defaults.

"As always, we look forward to feedback from our community," Microsoft's Dona Sarkar said in a blog post.

I'm sure Microsoft will not be pleased with user feedback on this completely unnecessary change. Let's just hope the company does not ignore them.

Microsoft is desperately trying to persuade Windows 10 users to switch from Chrome and Firefox to their own Edge browser.

The company even created a video to debunk Google's claims that Chrome offers more battery life of the device that uses it. Microsoft continues to use various other annoying ads within Windows 10 to promote Edge.

However, none of the above efforts seem to be working as Google Chrome is still the leader on desktop computers.

  1. Do not Google on Android and Apple on MacOS & iOS do exactly the same thing? Can you open links from Apple applications or Siri search with something other than Safari?
    Google does not open Chrome through the links of the Play Store; Does not force you to search with Google search if you want to do voice search on Android?
    So why is Microsoft to blame for everything?

    Understand it! polyphony is competition and competition is good for consumers !!!

    • You are right, but how does this competition do me good, no matter what company it comes from when I want a browser that does not collect data for Google, Apple, Microsoft?
