1. FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS - 1. Why do I have to install ietabhelper.exe? IE Tab uses the Internet Explorer rendering engine. This rendering engine can't be directly accessed from an Edge extension, so we need a helper process to talk between the Edge extension and the rendering engine. Is the IE Tab Helper application safe?

Microsoft Edge is designed for faster, safer browsing and is recommended for Windows 10. But Internet Explorer 11 is also included in Windows 10 and is automatically kept up to date. To open Internet Explorer, select the Start button, type Internet Explorer, and then select the top search result.

Q: I used to use Internet Explorer as my browser and have Yahoo! as my homepage and had all my favorites listed on the right side of the screen. But a few days ago my computer updated itself and installed Microsoft Edge over Internet Explorer and now my home page is the Microsoft website and my Favorites are gone. How can I get those back?

— Joan G., Fort Pierce

A: In May and June of 2020, Microsoft released a large Windows 10 update for all users, which aimed to fix various security concerns and added a number of productivity options to the operating system.

While several enhancements were installed in the update, one of its more noticeable features was the prominent appearance of the Microsoft Edge browser.

Though the Edge browser itself has been around since 2015 and Microsoft has been warning of phasing out Internet Explorer (IE) for years, this update officially confirmed to users that Edge was now Windows' preferred browser – going so far as to showcase the new Windows features in an Edge-base slideshow after the post-update restart and also by installing an icon for it on the Taskbar without getting user approval first.

Having said this, please know that IE is still there – the icon you were used to clicking on may have been replaced by the Edge icon but the program is still there. Simply locate it's executable by searching for it in Cortana to use it again and then create a shortcut for it on the Desktop using the steps found at this URL if you intend to keep using it: https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/945402/the-internet-explorer-icon-is-missing-from-your-desktop

But don't rule out Edge just yet.

Edge looks and works similarly to later versions of IE and it's significantly more secure than IE, especially when it comes to protection against phishing.

And realistically, it will provide you everything you liked about IE beforehand provided you spend a few minutes customizing it now.

For example, to return your list of favorites to the main view, do the following:

Launch Edge, then click on the three dots in the upper-right corner of the browser window. In the menu that pops up, click on Settings and scroll down through the menu offerings until you see a line reading 'Import or Export.' Click on that and then command the browser to import your Favorites and other information over from Internet Explorer. That's it. Once completed, your Favorites should appear for you when you click on the Favorites button in Edge (the star icon with the three lines coming out of it in the top bar).

The same goes for re-setting your homepage.

To change your homepage back to what it was pre-update (as the update may have made it the Microsoft website instead of your regular IE homepage by default), just follow these steps:

Launch Edge, select Settings (the three dots in the upper right corner) and then click on 'Settings' in the menu that appears. Then click on 'Appearance' in the new tab that appears, and under the 'Show home button' section, type in the URL of the home page you want to have (in this case it would be Yahoo.com) and hit 'Save.' Close the tab and reload the browser and the change should take effect.

One note: To ensure your Yahoo! homepage remains personalized, be sure to be logged into your Yahoo account after accessing it.

Internet Explorer Is Microsoft Edge Free

Microsoft has surrendered once again in the browser market, deciding to give up on its own browsing engine and move Microsoft Edge to Chromium.

The company has tried to play down this migration by emphasizing that contributing to the Chromium project brings major benefits to the entire web, obviously without discussing the actual reasons that forced it to come down to such a decision.

In reality, Microsoft Edge has never become the browser Microsoft hoped it would be. Launched with much fanfare as Project Spartan, Microsoft Edge was supposed to be Redmond’s Google Chrome and Mozilla Firefox killer.

Originally supposed to be able to run all Google Chrome extensions, this idea was gradually phased about, and Microsoft embraced a different approach that required developers to port their extensions to Edge and then publish them in the Microsoft Store.

The company provided all the necessary tools and documentation to make this task as easy as possible, and while some developers indeed brought their add-ons to Microsoft Edge, others showed little to no interest in doing so.

The small number of extensions, however, is considered just one of the reasons Microsoft Edge failed. And I’d say the lack of consistency, stability, and refinements is what actually turned this browser into another project that just had to go.

Looking back at Microsoft’s efforts in the browser market, it’s not necessarily surprising that Microsoft Edge eventually failed, but I think the whole thing happened way too fast. Microsoft Edge has barely reached half of the market share of Internet Explorer, the default Windows browser that it replaces and which no longer receives new features, but only security updates.

No matter if we like it or not, Internet Explorer was a browser that just got the job done. It lacked the more advanced capabilities of its rivals, but personally, I found Internet Explorer a much more stable and reliable browser overall than Microsoft Edge.

I tried giving up on Google Chrome and Vivaldi, the latter being my daily driver right now, several times in order to become a Microsoft Edge adopter, but every time I had to return because of the poor experience with the Windows 10 default. Some pages just failed to load, others weren’t rendered correctly, and there were moments when everything just felt painfully slow.

I barely experienced this behavior in Internet Explorer, though it goes without saying that 10 years ago, the web wasn’t as evolved as it is today. Comparing Internet Explorer and Microsoft Edge from a security perspective, for example, doesn’t make much sense, but when putting the two side and side and analyzing their overall feature package, you could end up surprised.

There are lots of users out there sticking with Internet Explorer even today. Indeed, many do this because they have no other option, as enterprise apps or other services are specifically optimized for Internet Explorer, but there are some who just don’t need anything else than the basic feature package that provides them with an uncluttered browsing experience.

And when it comes down to this, Internet Explorer is a surprisingly good solution. Truth be told, the simple fact that it no longer gets new features is living proof it can’t be a long-term alternative to modern browsers, but as long as it’s still around, maybe it’s just worth a chance.

At this point, Internet Explorer is a second-class citizen in Windows 10, but after news of Microsoft embracing Chromium, so is Microsoft Edge. So choosing between Internet Explorer and Microsoft Edge is a much more difficult task than you’d expect, as newer isn’t always the better.
