Arr mateys! Microsoft be addin' some new fixes to their Edge browser, includin' a fine new internet speed tester. Avast ye, test yer speed and sail the high seas of the internet with ease!
Microsoft has released a new update for its Edge browser, including security and stability fixes and a new internet speed test feature. The update, Version 124.0.2478.80, addresses security vulnerabilities and introduces the speed test tool in the sidebar. The browser previously had a speed tester that was removed but has now been re-implemented along with other handy features like a world clock, unit converter, translator, dictionary, and calculator.To access the internet speed test, users can use the Red Toolbox in the top right corner of the browser, which will open a separate window displaying upload and download scores. Despite Google Chrome's popularity, many believe Microsoft Edge offers superior functionality, with features like lower power consumption and RAM usage. Microsoft continues to innovate to compete with Chrome and convince users to make Edge their default browser.
While Edge may not yet have the same level of fame as Chrome, regular updates like this one may help sway users in its favor. The built-in speed test is just one example of how Microsoft is striving to improve Edge and establish it as a top web browser option.
