Glad I'm not the only one! After every major update I have to reset registry permissions for any custom tool that starts on a right-click.

Edge is actually not that bad. Chrome is going little bit downhill IMHO. It has become considerably slower and number of background processes it now creates are increasing day by day (reminds of FF; don't know if foxie has changed). Still, Chrome is what I use all the time. Few more proper updates to edge and I might jump the ship.

I use that all the time (with my non-DRM ebooks) and the fun thing with MS is you can pin the web page to your start menu so you have your current book on the start menu but it doesn't show the cover

I use this all the time for my non-DRM ebooks and pin the current book I'm reading to the start menu. But the only annoying thing is it doesn't show the cover on the start menu (which makes trying to work out if the pinned book is the current one I'm reading or not annoying) while explorer shows the cover when it's displaying files as tiles just fine.

I've been saying exactly the same for a while now. It also makes a great PDF reader.

Nother elephantingly annoying un-feature of Chrome is:
- highlight word
- Ctrl-F
- Expect word in search-box
- Be disappointed

No edge for edge here.

On my new notebook I didn't even bother to install an Ebook reader or PDF reader, just used Edge for that. Everything worked fine until a week ago CodeProject started behaving badly (or Edge), now I'm using Edge mostly and Chrome for some sites only.

Edge on Android is a better browser than Chrome on Android. I was rather surprised - with Chrome I kept having slow page loads. Edge fixed that.

My wife got a call from the secretary of the boss at one of our customer sites.
"Are you remotely connected to <boss's> computer?"
"No, I was yesterday to fix that email thing, but not today" said my wife.
"Ok said secretary.... and hung up.
Then an email came in from the secretary.
"Nevermind, <boss's> (wireless) mouse was in his bag moving around"

It's a gaytway option but NOT the usual: XOR is more likely. The question is how they mask their behavior.
