Microsoft Edge is a free web browser from Microsoft, based on Chromium. It is available for Windows, macOS and Linux, with apps for Android and iOS, from Microsoft’s official download page.

2 min read

Microsoft Edge comes preinstalled on Windows 10 and 11, but Microsoft also offers it for macOS and Linux. It is built on Chromium, the same open-source base as Google Chrome, so most websites and Chrome extensions work in it.

What Edge offers

  • Copilot: Microsoft’s AI assistant is built into the browser.
  • Sync across devices: Passwords, favorites and history sync with Edge on iOS and Android when you sign in with a Microsoft account.
  • Extensions: Use add-ons from Microsoft’s own store, and Chrome Web Store extensions too; for example, Picture-in-Picture Extension or Volume Master.
  • Edge for Business: Organizations can configure it with additional security and management features.

How to download

  1. Click Download to open Microsoft’s official Edge download page.
  2. Windows: Edge is already installed on Windows 10 and 11; the page offers the installer if you need to reinstall or update.
  3. macOS: Choose Download for macOS.
  4. Linux: Choose Download for Linux (.deb).
  5. Phones: Follow the iOS or Android links on the same page.

Downloading Edge means accepting the Microsoft Edge Software License Terms.

Insider channels

If you want to try features early, Microsoft offers Insider channels (preview builds) that are updated continuously with the latest features.

Microsoft notes that feature availability can vary by device, market and browser version. If you prefer a browser less tied to a big platform, compare Vivaldi or Mozilla Firefox.

Pros

  • Preinstalled and integrated on Windows
  • Runs Chrome Web Store extensions
  • Available on desktop and mobile

Cons

  • Strongly tied to Microsoft accounts and services
  • Some features vary by market and device
