Hello, In this time Gugel Q again presents articles related to contemporary technological advances and are widely used by the world community today. 

Microsoft Edge? I'm confused, just read the article first

When talking about browsers , maybe what comes to your mind is Google Chrome or Mozilla Firefox. Yes, these two browsers are certainly familiar to our ears.

But did you know that Microsoft has now launched a new browser that is reportedly better than the old version (Internet Explorer), even being called a big rival to Chrome and Firefox? Yes, the name of the browser is Microsoft Edge.

Switch Internet Explorer to Microsoft Edge

Microsoft has launched their best version of the browser called Edge, as well as ending the era of Internet Explorer which is considered less able to compete with other modern browsers such as Google Chrome or Mozilla Firefox.

Maybe most of you feel uncomfortable when using Internet Explorer as a browser . Yes, the author himself has also tried this Microsoft release browser.

Internet Explorer is said to have failed to provide a good experience for its users. Many users choose to leave and move to the browser better performance such as Chrome or Firefox.

Although the Internet Explorer browser has been improved several times, but still its efforts do not make users to switch again to use it. Because, the name Internet Explorer already seems less friendly among users.

Microsoft had to rack my brains to clear its name. So in 2020 yesterday, Microsoft launched a new browser called Microsoft Edge.

This browser is growing rapidly among users because it is predicted to be Chromium -based, you know!

For those of you who are new to the term Chromium , you can read the information through the Wikipedia – Chromium blog .

Microsoft Edge Feature Advantage

Microsoft certainly presents new features to attract the attention of users and also as a mainstay weapon to compete with other modern browsers such as Google Chrome and Mozilla Firefox.

One of the superior features of Microsoft Edge that became a mainstay weapon is its integration with Cortana artificial intelligence and the Bing search engine.

With its integration with Cortana and Bing, searching in Microsoft Edge is very fast. It is very different from the browser released by Microsoft before, namely the outdated Internet Explorer.

The User Interface (UI) design or the appearance of the front page now looks very attractive. In fact, Microsoft presents options for users to be able to customize the design theme, according to the tastes and interests of the user.

Not only themes, but news content and font size can also be customized by users. Very cool, right?

1. Connect with Artificial Intelligence - Cortana

The feature presented by Microsoft Edge that we will discuss first is an intelligent personal assistant based on Artificial Intelligence (AI).

The artificial intelligence is named Cortana, its function is to help users in various ways. One of the functions provided is that users can search for something without the need to type in keywords.

This artificial intelligence has also been linked to a search engine called Bing. So, users can search through Bing with very fast results.

You need to know, this Cortana feature doesn't just activate right away. You must enable this feature by changing the ' Advanced Setting' setting to ' Get Cortana to Assist me in Microsoft Edge '.

2. Customize Theme and Appearance

Not only providing artificial intelligence features, Microsoft Edge also features theme and display customization. The function of this feature, of course, is to make users feel comfortable with the customized theme.

How do I activate this feature? The method is quite simple, by clicking the 'Page Settings' option on the Microsoft Edge front page, then users can freely adjust the appearance of the theme according to their taste and preferences.

Microsoft Edge also provides two main themes, namely a dark theme ( dark mode ) and a light theme ( light mode ). However, it is possible that in the future Microsoft will provide additional style themes so that the choice of themes is more diverse. Happy exploring!
