Microsoft's new Edge and Google Chrome are very similar browsers, and the two are built into the platform Chromium.
Microsoft has significantly increased its presence after the change it made to its own Chromium browsing platform. So it seems that the measurements make him a "dangerous" opponent and so Google has increased the warnings and scary messages to those who run the Edge.
The story is not particularly new. In the past, Google presented Edge users with a warning when they opened its services, such as Google Teams, Gmail, Google Docs and YouTube Music.
Google services can easily figure out which browser useste to visit their pages, so depending on what they find they act accordingly. So if you're on the new Edge and you go to the Chrome Web Store to find extensions, which are now compatible with Edge due to the shared Chromium platform, you'll see a nice security warning.
You will see that "recommends" you leave Edge and go to Chrome to use the extensions safely. And so you do not have to search for a link to download Google Chrome.
So far so good. Her own Web Store, her own recommendation. But it's deliberately targeted at Edge, as Google doesn't show this recommendation in other appsletterChromium browsers such as Opera and Brave.
Google Alert does not actually affect Edge's ability to use and run Chrome extensions securely. You can install the extensions as usual, but click on that security warnings could scare off novice users and drive them away from the Edge.
Last year, Google said it was not blocking the Microsoft Edge, but rather a simple diplomatic statement, like the policy ones. In recent years, the browsers battles have become more complicated as no one wants to share the market.
In the past, the makers of Vivaldi, which is also based on Chromium, have also complained about "errors" caused by Google and hacked the browser.
