You can use it as another search engine option for Google. It is formerly called the Live Search, which is MSN Search, and Windows Live Search before it. Bing is the search engine of Microsoft and it is recommended by default to be your choice when you first set up your Chromium Edge browser. While it is frustrating to see it, such a scenario only happens when you use the Bing Search and not if you have changed your default search engine to Google, Yahoo! or DuckDuckGo. But, when you click a search result, instead of opening right there on the same tab, it opens in another. It is unnoticeable when you open links from a website, and it opens in another tab. If you use the Microsoft Edge browser, you may have noticed that clicking links will automatically open in new tabs. At least someone has come up with a solution to take your PC out of the silly browser wars.RECOMMENDED: Download this tool to help you safely fix common Windows errors & automatically optimize system performance We shouldn’t need to resort to third-party solutions to preserve our default browser choice in Windows 10 but here we are. You won’t need to specify a preferred browser, either, EdgeDeflector will detect your system default.
All of the work is done on your local machine and it collects no data as it operates simply by redirecting links the Windows shell tries to push to Microsoft Edge.
The installer will run you through anything you need to do on your system to get it running, but once complete it’ll simply fade into the background. In the 'Default apps' section of 'Settings' there is an option for 'Choose default apps by protocol' and you'll be directed to change the Microsoft Edge option to EdgeDeflector.Īs noted on the Github page you may need to re-install after major feature updates so it’s worth keeping it bookmarked. To install, grab the latest release from the Github page and install it like any other executable on Windows 10.
