    Windows 7 support ends 5 days later..How long will Google take to drop Win7 support? Is there gonna be 1 or two stable edge builds for windows 7 after which we get the yellow banner saying no more updates??!

    Microsoft will start pushing the new Edge (Chromium) instead of the old one through Windows Update on PCs with Windows 10 1809+ Pro and Home on January 15, 2020.
    Deny installation:

    reg add HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\EdgeUpdate /v DoNotUpdateToEdgeWithChromium /t REG_DWORD /d 1

    What does Canary have to do with Stable? It's like saying Firefox Stable releasing tomorrow will be version 75 because Firefox Nightly is on version 75(example). I fail to see your logic. I hope your other 4K posts aren't like this.

    The irony here is Microsoft put forward the idea of a non-skeuomorphic interface for Windows 8.x/10, it's not a bad idea, but now they're reintroducing skeuomorphic crap. The entire interface is a s**t-mess of different ideas. It's patently ridiculous that a company the size of Microsoft with the enormous resources it has idling can't even execute on this one simple design concept in eight years of dicking around that it put forward and bragged about as well as some graphic artists have managed in their spare time... For free...

    Is this reg key from anything official? There were a litany of hacks like this on MDL when Microsoft started pushing Windows 10 upgrades that did not work...

    Do we have any idea when Microsoft will be adding synchronisation of extensions and extension settings? It's pretty much the last thing that is annoying me with using Edge Chromium.

    there is at least a basic type of extension that everyone in this times should consider install, and are the adblockers.
