What’s Changing in Microsoft Edge Settings?
Microsoft is reorganising the Settings page to make finding the tools you need faster and simpler. Here’s a breakdown of the key improvements:
- New Quick Access Panel for Frequently Used Features: A new quick-access panel will now appear under the main Settings menu. This panel provides one-click shortcuts to popular tools and settings, reducing the need to search through extensive lists. You can access essential options in a snap, which means less time digging and more time focusing on what matters.
- Streamlined Submenus for Easier Navigation: Settings are now organised into specific submenus, like “System and Performance” and “Appearance.” Each submenu is tailored to a distinct area of functionality, making it easier to find exactly what you need without scrolling through unrelated options. Need to boost performance? Head straight to “System and Performance.” Want to change the look of your browser? “Appearance” has everything you need.
- Quick Access Shortcuts Within Submenus: Not only will the main menu have a quick-access panel, but each submenu will also include its own shortcuts to frequently used options. This layered approach further enhances ease of use, helping you get to where you want to go faster than ever.
How Does This Compare to Google Chrome?
Microsoft Edge’s streamlined Settings experience is on par with Google Chrome’s praised organisation, creating a strong alternative for those looking for an efficient browser in their business. With Microsoft’s fresh layout, switching to Edge could mean better navigation and smoother operations for your team.
When Can You Expect the Update?
Microsoft is actively testing these updates, and you can anticipate a rollout soon. Once live, these changes will make navigating settings in Edge more intuitive and efficient, allowing users to maximise the browser’s potential in a business environment.
