However, I do regret having to buy a whole system annual subscription ad blocker. I like its current minimalistic footprint. I think that MS Edge might get bloated when adding extensions. I’ve tried the Web note feature, but I don’t find it useful just yet.īe careful what you wish for when you ask for extensions support. Particularly I like the reading view feature, the reading list, and the hub in general. It’s fast, simple, and renders pages efficiently. I wish I could embed my own choice of news feeds.Īlthough the default offerings are useful, I rather see my choices presented.ĭespite the new tab and the suggested content limitations, I’m using MS Edge exclusively. Like the page icons, the news feeds load very fast.Īlso, the selection of content is simple. Is there a way to tweak the number of page icons showed?ĭo the new builds allow tweaking that setting to add more? Yet, I do like the size of the page icons. The new tab page in MS Edge is too basic! What is your take on the new tab page in Microsoft Edge? Do you like the suggested content it displays or not so much? Leave a comment below and let us know your thoughts. We expect to see support for extensions in Microsoft Edge and hopefully even more options for customizing the new tab page, too. In fact, we’re already starting to get new builds for those in the Windows Insider Program - the last one was build 10547. There is a big update, codenamed Threshold 2, coming to Windows 10 later this fall. You can also select from the customization displayed above and your favorite topics at the bottom of the next page. If you are a fan of the suggested content, you can customize it to fit your interests better. It’s not a blank page like you’d expect in other browsers like IE or Firefox, but it’s cleaner. If you’re looking to increase performance and have no desire to see the extra stuff… open to a blank page. While sometimes I like to see the suggested content, it does seem to slow the browser down a bit…takes a bit of time for the content to load. Next, scroll down to Open new tabs with and from the dropdown menu you can have it display top sites and suggested content, top sites only, or just a blank page. Launch Microsoft Edge and select the More actions icon (…) in the upper-right corner and then Settings.
But if you’re not happy with the default selections Microsoft has included, there is some customization you can do, including having it open to a blank page. It shows top and frequently visited sites, the ability to get top site apps that will open the Store, suggested news content, widgets for weather and sporting events. Currently, it uses a speed dial feature, as you see in Opera and other browsers. Windows 10 has a new default browser called Microsoft Edge as we’ve said in the past, it’s still a work in progress.
