The latest version of Windows 10 includes some changes that are designed to make it easier for people to use Microsoft Edge as their default browser. In addition to making it possible to set Edge as the default browser, there are now options to automatically download files you want to save to OneDrive, and even to sync passwords across devices.

Microsoft Edge is still the best web browser around, but it isn’t always easy to find out how to do things like change the default browser. Here’s what you need to know about setting Edge as your default browser in Windows 10.

Change Edge as Your Default Browser

There, you’ll see a list of programs that can handle certain file types. You can add Edge to this list by clicking “Add.” Then, select Edge from the dropdown menu next to “Open With:” and choose “Always use this app to open this type of file.” Once you’ve done that, you’re ready to switch Edge as your default browser.

You can also set Edge as your default browser for specific sites. From here, you can either pick a site by name or browse through the list of sites you’ve visited most recently. If you’d rather just set Edge as your default for everything, you can do that too.
