Microsoft Edge is the new Browser του Redmond. Βασίζεται στο Chromium, δηλαδή χρησιμοποιεί τον ίδιο κινητήρα που τροφοδοτεί τον Google Chrome, και είναι availableon Windows and macOS.
The new Edge has become the new default browser of Windows 10, replacing the old version of the application.
But as we recently mentioned, some users have noticed that the automatic update, which is available through Windows Update, sometimes imports data from other browsers without the consent of the end user.
In other words, once Edge is installed on the device, it automatically starts importing data from other browsers after the first reboot.
Some users have even found that even if they force close the browser from Task Manager, Edge still imports data from other browsers such as Google Chrome and Firefox. Edge automatically imports it in the background as well record, passwords and more.
Of course the company was accused by too many, and so today finally made a statement:
“During the first experience, the customer has the opportunity to keep or reject the inputtreatment of the data. This data is discarded if you choose not to proceed with the import. If a customer prematurely terminates the new Microsoft Edge browser on first launch (e.g. using Task Manager), residual data may not be completely deleted. We advise customers not to terminate the installation process prematurely to ensure an expected result”.
So technically, you should be able to delete the remaining data manually if you do not agree to Edge importing your browsing files from Chrome or Firefox.
So as you understand the responsibility is the customer and not the company. Microsoft is "oil" again.
