New Features Coming To Microsoft Edge Browser by thommascollier: 8:34pm On Jun 27, 2020
Microsoft Edge has recently managed to become the second most-used desktop browser in the world after surpassing Mozilla Firefox thanks to a massive growth in the latest few months.

Needless to say, this is also the result of Microsoft Edge being offered as the recommended choice on Windows 10, the world’s number one desktop operating system, but at the same time, it’s very clear that the migration to the Chromium engine is also paying off in the long term.

At this point, Microsoft Edge already comes with a feature package that’s similar to the one of Google Chrome, so some of those who previously used Google’s browser are now making the switch to Microsoft’s application.

But the good news going forward is that Microsoft is also working on a series of new features in the coming months, and today we’re going to have a look at what’s to come for the new default Windows 10 browser. First and foremost, Microsoft says it’s now planning to “Bring the Ask Cortana feature” that was originally available in Microsoft Edge legacy to the new Chromium browser. At first, this feature was marked as “in discussion,” so it’s now labeled as planned, which means it should make its debut in the browser at some point in the future.

Certainly, it’ll take some time before this happens, but it’s still good news that it’s coming to all users on Windows 10, especially given Cortana is bundled with the OS. It goes without saying this feature will be exclusive to the Windows 10 version of the browser, as Microsoft’s digital assistant is not available on macOS and Linux (which will soon get Microsoft Edge too).
