Signing up for Internet services should be easier if you are in the browserlogged in to multiple accounts. These are personal, but also work or school accounts. Edge 97 will ask you which account to use if you are currently logged in to multiple work or school accounts. The function can be switched off.
The browser also supports automatic use of secure HTTPS protocol. Although the most visited websites use it and especially Google puts a lot of pressure on the extension, if the visited site still communicates via HTTP, the browser can try to change it to HTTPS. Firefox can do it, among other things.
The feature is distributed in a controlled manner, and it is not clear from the description whether you will need to activate it manually or whether Edge will prompt you to use a secure protocol. Microsoft states that encryption should be used for domains that probably support HTTPS. So he probably has his own white list, or he evaluates the situation differently.
Citation
From the user’s point of view, the last visible news in the recent edition of the browser are citations. Microsoft is especially targeting students. Edge quotes generates for pages added to collections. Although the feature appears in a stable version of the browser, it is officially marked as a test.
You can find the generation of citations in the main menu, where you tap Other toolsQuote it. Alternatively, sand directly into your collection. Of the citation styles available are APA 7, Chicago, Harvad, IEEE and MLA. Of course, Edge’s sophisticated citation managers won’t replace it.
Even his ability to correctly find the necessary information about the article is not perfect, for example, he did not find the obvious title of the magazine in the article Soil microbiomes and climate change. I also noticed a bad translation of the Volume field in the Czech Edgi. In this context, it is not the volume, but the year.

News in Edgi
In the regularly updated article, we follow the news in the Edge browser from version 94. You can find out which aspects of the product the manufacturer has gradually added, removed or modified in the following sheets.
Edge 96
Original article dated 23 November 2021
Highlighting PDF documents has hit the limits that Edge 96 overcomes by adding to the equipment highlighter for free use. So it no longer binds you in that it can only color-code the text. The fresh release of the browser also allows direct launch progressive web applications help relevant protocols.
It is becoming more and more a reader for working with neweb documents. Edge already also displays Microsoft Office documents. The manufacturer does not specify specific types. I was able to open Word documents with extensions in the browser DOCX even older DOC. Similarly, you should open spreadsheets and presentations from Excel and PowerPoint.
You do not throw locally stored files in your browser. It uses a simple browser from the Office web version to display, ie the files are actually opened in the web service. If this behavior does not suit you, you will turn off the new feature completely and the documents will always be downloaded straight to the selected folder. Microsoft states that the change does not affect file browsing in OneDrive and the Office Web site.
Mathematical problems? Edge will solve them
Another new feature is aimed in a different direction than websites. So, it works with sites, but they are not its direct target. Edge welcomed integrated tool for solving mathematical problems. According to the manufacturer, he means arithmetic, algebra, trigonometry, etc.
You can find it in the main menu and enter the tasks either directly (there is no mathematical keyboard) or select an example on the web or in a document. It can also be a photo of a handwritten assignment. The browser recognizes the job thanks to OCR. The tool also visualizes your input via a graph.
Some malicious websites they rely on you to write wrong address known services. Edge you to these sites you’ve visited for typos, warns. That’s all there is to the main news that is interesting to us. Edge 96 also includes a number of attractions for business environments. For a complete list of changes, visit the Microsoft Docs website.

Edge 95
Original article from October 23, 2021
If you are using the Edge viewer to browse documents in PDF, you may be interested in the latest release of the browser from Microsoft. It remembers where you left off last time, so you can follow up smoothly. The function can be switched off. The Redmonds began distributing Edge 95 on Thursday.
Additionally, you insert text annotations directly into PDF document bodies. He was also improved user experience when downloading files in progressive web applications or programs that use WebView. It should also be possible to drag files directly to the desktop and to other folders. However, the previous sentence refers to an unspecified future.
The menus are translucent in Windows 11
At first glance, you will notice better integration with Windows 11 in design – context menus are transparent, windows have rounded corners. The collection will allow you to create citations of articles, but it probably won’t be right away. (Microsoft enters a similarly strange realm as Google, ie, as news, it presents features that the browser does not yet have.) We do not know according to which standard the citations will be created.
Economy mode and easier registration
To lasted longer when working on the battery, the browser switches to more economical mode. It’s reminiscent of Opera’s earlier idea of ​​restricting some features when a network cable is disconnected. It will not go into Edge Sleep until the battery is low and Windows activates System Sleep.
However, you can also choose to have the mode activated as soon as the computer is disconnected from the mains. The mode can still be active all the time, or you can turn it off completely and forget that it exists. If you don’t see it in your browser yet, please wait, the distribution of this feature is controlled.
Also note the rounded corners of the window
Edge offers for selected sites automated registration of user accounts. We just don’t know exactly what sites are involved. In short, the browser automatically fills in the form fields – it also generates a password. Of course, they will then save the login details.
Similarly, when you change your password, the browser takes you directly to the page where you do so. However, only on selected sites I remind you that Edge, following the example of Chrome, shortened the development cycle to four weeks.

Edge 94
Original article dated October 14, 2021
Edge 94 was released at the end of September. This is not a complete novelty, but Microsoft is now pointing out what a slightly hidden novelty it brings in combination with Windows 11, which is currently accessible to people involved in the Windows Insider program. Product development from the same stable went hand in hand, at least in some respects (less so for design).
So if you’re using Eleven, you may notice that after the Edge update, it is more readable in Task Manager. In previous series, Windows still held, and you still see a large number of processes below you that you can’t tell by name. If you needed to “shoot down” the process causing the browser to slow down or freeze, you shot to some extent blind.
Process identification? You can do it now
This is exactly what Microsoft has finally solved. Now they are partial processes clearly named and is represented by a custom icon. In some cases, the process contains multiple items, each represented on a separate line. Modern browsers use a variety of processes. They are therefore more memory intensive, but at the same time more stable and safer.
You will now recognize the individual processes, which will help you in situations where you need to end one of them
The browser’s internal task manager has been similarly improved. Couldn’t process labels and icons appear in Windows 10 Task Manager? Microsoft doesn’t say that, it’s just not happening now.
Starting with the release of the Edge 94 manufacturer shortens the development cycle so that the new major version will be released at intervals just four weeks. Since the beginning of 2020, such a cadence has been set by competing Mozilla. Microsoft leaves the Extended Stable distribution channel to companies, where the update takes place every eight weeks. Basically, every second version will be skipped.
