Get rid of it. It is an add platform much more than a web browser.

It is incompatible with many sites.

You will only Chase headaches with edge it just is not worth it imho.

If you must use a Microsoft browser use internet explorer it is in ten as well it is just hidden.

If you type internet explorer in the Cortana search box it will pop up.

The new Firefox is faster and better for normies, but the old one, - OhZone Jan 2018 #16
