Edge browser: how can MS improve it ?

7. Sometimes you have to throw the baby out with the bathwater and make a new baby.

IE was originally designed as tied to the OS. On other words, it shared old programming (legacy code) with Windows going back to Win 95.

They had to redesign from scratch because IE had been patched so many times and all of this inoptimal code prevented them from creating hooks into the more modern operating system Windows 10.

That having been said, Microsoft does nothing that does not serve Microsoft. Windows 10 is not about improving the experience for users, but about improving renumeration from users to Microsoft.

Eventually, Microsoft will figure out ways to make us all pay money to continue to use Windows and Microsoft services. This is coming. That's what all that spying is about.

What prevents it from happening now is that both Google and Apple have beat Microsoft to the goal. Microsoft trails behind the others and I'm very glad.

Microsoft is a bully to its common users, but kisses the asses of the large corporate users.

I upgraded all of my computers to Windows 10, and each one in turn has been downgraded back to Windows 7 and 8.

Windows 10, sometimes inexplicably, takes far too long just to startup.
