You can now send tabs to other devices in Microsoft Edge

The latest Microsoft Edge Canary build makes moving tabs between devices much easier. There is no longer any need to email tabs to yourself or send them in a messenger.

Microsoft details Performance Mode in Edge

A couple of weeks ago, Microsoft quietly introduced Performance Mode for its Edge browser. This mode is not publicly available yet, but some users can enable it in Edge Canary using a simple command. At the time of writing about how to enable Performance Mode in Microsoft Edge, there was no specific information on how this mode works. All we had was a vague description claiming that "Performance mode helps you optimize speed, responsiveness, memory, CPU, and battery usage." In the latest Canary build, Microsoft has provided a little more detail about Performance Mode in the Edge browser.

Following Chrome, Edge will default to HTTPS for domains in version 92

Starting in Microsoft Edge 92, the browser will open websites via HTTPS when no protocol specified by the user, i.e. in case when the URL is entered partially. For example, if you type winaero.com into the address bar, it will first load https://winaero.com and not http://winaero.com, as it works in the actual stable Edge version.

Enable or Disable Ask Age Range for Kids Mode in Microsoft Edge

Here is how to enable or disable Ask Age Range for Kids Mode in Microsoft Edge. It is disabled by default, so Edge doesn't show the range selection dialog every time you start the Kids Mode browsing session.

When the user launches Kids Mode for the first time, Edge asks to choose the age range. This is required to configure Edge settings so that your child can access relevant and safe content. Although Microsoft Edge does not create a dedicated child profile, it remembers which age range you have selected and no longer asks you to specify it the next time you launch Kids Mode. Such behavior may not work well for families with children of different age groups.
