One user reports on Microsoft’s forums that the last couple of builds set Microsoft Edge as the default browser in Windows 10. In addition to that, none of his desktop website shortcuts seem to work with any other browser, except for Edge. Here’s what he said on the forums: This is a very annoying issue, especially for those who don’t use Edge on a regular basis. It is well known that Microsoft encourages Windows 10 users to use Edge through various tips, suggestions and test results. However, this is something completely different. Windows 10 is literally forcing Microsoft Edge down users’ throat by crippling other browsers. Now, since this happened in Windows 10 Preview, we cannot say for sure this was done on purpose, and it probably wasn’t. All in all, Microsoft needs to fix this issue, because it will only drive away users from switching to Edge, because no one likes to be forced into something. Remember what happened with the Windows 10 upgrade process? Have you noticed any similar issues with Edge or some other unusual features in the latest Windows 10 build? If the answer is yes, let us know in the comments. RELATED STORIES YOU NEED TO CHECK OUT:
