As everyone knows, the Microsoft Edge is Microsoft’s next-generation Windows 10 operating system default browser, which replaces the already dominant desktop operating system nearly 20-year history of Internet Explorer.

Recently, the market research firm Net Applications announced February 2016, the latest browser market share report. According to the report, Edge current in the context of the global market share of only 3.02%, the equivalent of 100 on a Windows computer, only 3 users using the Edge browser.

Edge browser usage rate is so low? One of the most important reasons is that the Edge browser Windows only 10 system users, Windows users can install any version before. Microsoft in a statement stressed that no prior Windows versions or Edge browser program for non-Windows operating system development.

For Microsoft, last month has grown enough to make it a surprise Edge browser, as compared to 1.51% market share in January 2016, has increased by almost 1 time.

For example, the Edge of browsers that do not support the browser plug-in extensions, but these two features have been found in Chrome and Firefox for years, popular, for plug-in extensions for Chrome browser kernel is too numerous to list.

Under Microsoft’s plan, Edge plug-ins extending functionality in Windows is expected to 10 Redstone (Redstone) provided in the update. In response, Microsoft has confirmed that the plugin extension will be positioned as a priority development issues within, so the Basic can determine the update after the initial vision, the key lies in “Red Rock” when updates are released and no timetable.

Waiting for a “red stone” during the update, Microsoft will continue to improve the Edge browser, but the pace is rather slow. Microsoft has not complained that the user does not use the Edge browser, maybe also clear Edge what is the status of.
