Lat year, Microsoft has made the open tab and browsing history sync options  to all Edge Insiders. Starting today, the company is rolling out these features to all users, so anyone check the extended sync options in action.

Microsoft Edge is now a Chromium-based browser with a number of exclusive features like Read Aloud and services tied to Microsoft instead of Google. The browser has already received a few updates, with support for ARM64 devices. Also, Microsoft Edge is still supporting a number of aging Windows versions, including Windows 7. Check out Windows Versions Supported by Microsoft Edge Chromium. Finally, interested users can download MSI installers for deployment and customization.

Edge allows syncing users' preferences and data, including favorites, settings, extensions, addresses, and more. There are options in the browser's settings that allow you to enable or disable individual items in sync. Till now, the options to sync 'Tabs' and 'History' were only available to Insiders. This has changed. This means that you can easily pick up where you left off by closing Edge on one of your computers and opening it on the other.

The ability to sync browser tabs and history between instances of Edge is one of the most anticipated features of the modern Microsoft browser. It's great that it's finally available.

Microsoft is actively working on improving the sync options in Edge. Recently, the company made it possible to reset Sync and delete the uploaded data from its servers. Check out
