In my opinion, the New Microsoft Edge (base on Chromium) is freaking great. It is the best now.

Chrome is memory hunger and bad now. Firefox is yark, I only use it for older Windows like Windows XP and Windows 7 in VM for testing for fun.

It's not only limited to setting default browser on Windows 11.
Setting default program, like for playing music and video, had to do it one by one in file extension, unlike Windows 10 which can set it all at once under categories.

Intentionally ?

How to Enable Microsoft Edge Fluent Design's Acrylic Effect for Windows 11.

• Make sure you at latest version 93.0.961.38.
• Type edge://flags/ at address bar.
• Search Windows 11.
• Change Enable Windows 11 Visual Updates from Default to Enable.

Done. Enjoy! 😊

And higher ram usage as well

Different people different opinion, already get used to Chrome, even use Chrome on my iPhone
As for memory hunger, yes no doubt this issue never been fixed, even though Google claimed that latest Chrome had reduced ram usage, but it still high
Nowdays I would say 16gb ram is the minimum requirement

Speechless
There are lot of file extension over there, need to change 1 by 1

I also get use to Chrome, but Edge too great. I force myself use it and forget about Chrome.

Now my everything is Edge from PC to iPad to iPhone to Android Phone. Edge all the way.

I love Google
I installed most of the Google apps on my phone
I know that other browser also able to sync browsing history across device, but already get use to Chrome

I doubt it would be able to run Windows 10 too. With your spec, I suggest you to use Linux.

Actually it can under these condition:
1. Need a Direct 12X capable GPU
2. Will no receive further security update from Microsoft.

You need some work on bypassing TPM check and some registry entry.

i cant tell the difference between chrome and edge... even the menus almost the same.

Now new Edge is based on Chrome, old Edge you will see different.

Can run, but if truly want to use it daily, need to have 4Gb ram and ssd.

To be exact, both Chrome and Edge are just fork of Chromium and shared same architecture with Chromium. Consider Chromium as "unstable beta".

No point to crack and force install the OS and run like turtle. Right?

I have migrated to Edge maybe 1 or 2 years ago. Glad i dump Chrome.

I still use Chrome most of the time. Much lightweight a bit but the latest Edge was pretty awesome. So I use both of them. Firefox very less using them unless need to test something.

Latest Edge was better than Chrome now in term of features and capabilities.

Ofcoz on my virtual machine running on Windows 11 is only using Edge.

As usual New OS Build was release for both

• Beta Channel - 22000.184
• Dev Channel - 22454.1000

Dev Channel finally fixed one important bugs for me - Right Click for Single Click is fully functional now, no longer appear immediate missing issue.

do you guys really think Windows 11 will enforce the minimum hardware requirement such as 8th gen proc, TPM2.0 etc or will they relax it once they have launched

Left that 1 month left, i just wait and see, no more care because my pc maybe too slow or cannot run 11, i5 2300

hardware requirements is too high and many hardware to change followed by re purchase of OEM licenses.........hope they change their minds
