Many are from big-names-the kind of services that want to be available on every browser. That's not great, considering that Edge added extension support in March 2016. (This is the same problem Microsoft had with apps for its phones, and still has for apps in Windows 10-not enough developers care, and that keeps users away.)īut guess what? There are a few, just a few-44 as of this writing-extensions available for Microsoft's nimble little Edge.

Who can blame us? When browsers like Google Chrome and Mozilla Firefox support thousands of add-ons, it's hard to care about Edge. But we dinged it for, among other things, not having enough extensions. It's certainly not PCMag's-our review only gave it 3.5 stars, despite it being fast, lightweight, simple, and full of extras like built-in support for Flash, PDFs, and ebooks. Sorry Microsoft, but Edge-the default web browser of Windows 10 is nobody's favorite.
