What is Microsoft Edge?
THANKS TO ALL who replied.
If I had known what it was, I may have considered using it.
But it was installed without my knowledge/permission.
I will wait for independent reviews on it, before I use it.
And I'm still on Windows 7 Professional, which I thought was no longer receiving "updates."
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
It installed itself onto my computer several days ago, plus onto another computer of a client of mine a few days ago.
What is EDGE supposed to do for me or who/whatever?
Thanks in advance for any clarification on this.

Because it installed itself without warning me.
