Hi Rocky

The only add-on we use is the brilliant Adblock Plus.
An absolute must-have in my opinion.

There are some sites I go to with Firefox that simply do not work.  Maybe
because of my settings.  I don't know.  But when that happens, I open Edge
and it always works.  But I have no add-ons or restrictions on Edge.  It's
out-of-the-box so to speak.

Hi Rocky

Indeed. We use it throughout our office, and I have used it since the very
first developer preview beta.
It is beyond me why so many - in the light of what other troubles you may
have with a pc - waste time on installing third-party browsers to replace
Edge that actually works with zero issues. Typically, Chrome is chosen, to
have your complete online history tracked by Google. I don't get it.

I know, that many claims Edge "not to work", but when I have asked for a URL
to demonstrate that, I receive none.

However, now when its EdgeHTML engine will be replaced with Chromium, the
topic seems moot:

Making the web a better place for everyone. Back in December, we announced
our intention to adopt the Chromium open source project in the development
of Microsoft Edge on the desktop to create better web compatibility for our
customers, and less fragmentation of the web for all web developers. Now
we're ready to show you what we've been working on, and invite you to come
along on our journey.
