Google has added a security warning to those using Microsoft Edge

Microsoft's new Edge and Google Chrome are very similar browsers as they are both built on the same platform .

Edge

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 pro when they opened its services, such as Google Teams, Gmail, Google Docs and .

Google services can easily figure out which browser you are using to visit their pages, so depending on what they find, they are doing the right thing. So if you are with the new Edge and go to the Chrome Web Store to find extensions that are now compatible with Edge due to the common Chromium platform, you will see a nice security alert.

You will see that it "recommends" you to leave Edge and go to Chrome for safe use of extensions. And so that you don't have to look for it, he also lists a link for it Google Chrome.

So far so good. Her own Web Store and recommendation. But it is deliberately targeted at Edge, as Google does not show this recommendation in other Chromium browsers, such as Opera and Brave.

Google's warning doesn't actually affect Edge's ability to use and run Chrome extensions safely. You can install extensions as usual, but click on that warnings they could scare half-learned users away from 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.
