Download Chrome onto your PC, which will automatically sync your bookmarks. If you’ve traditionally worked in Chrome, it’s much simpler. If that doesn’t work, import the favorites to IE11, then use Edge to copy the favorites over automatically from that browser.

Copy it to the Windows 10 PC and try importing the favorites file. If you’re exporting favorites from Internet Explorer 11 from another PC, enter the Favorites tab, click the drop-down menu at the top, wade through the menus, and then export the file to C:UsersYOURNAMEDocumentsbookmark.htm. You’ll probably want the Favorites bar turned on, and then click “Import Favorites from another browser.” Importing favorites requires you to enter the Settings menu yet again, but just the first page.

Swap it to the dark theme for a bit more panache. You may not be a fan of the light theme I’m not. In the Settings menu, you may have seen a toggle to switch between the “light” and “dark” theme. You can dive into the advanced Settings menu to set a home page. At the very top of that page, you’ll see a toggle to “show the home button.” Make sure that’s enabled, and then add a homepage, such as (ahem). See that ellipsis (…) menu to the upper right? Click it, scroll down to the Settings, and then all the way down, again, to the “View advanced settings” button. Unfortunately, adding a homepage requires an unexpectedly deep dive into the Settings menu, of all places. The two things you’ll probably want to do immediately are set up a homepage, and import any saved bookmarks. But your browsing won’t leave a record on your PC. InPrivate won’t hide your activity from your employer or your ISP, however, as they can track your activity at the network level. Surfing privately via an InPrivate window requires you to click the ellipsis menu in the upper right corner, then launch the InPrivate session via drop-down option. If you want to open a new tab, click the + sign in the header bar or type Ctrl+T. Type a Web address into the search box, navigate forward and back with the arrows, and add favorites by clicking the Favorite (star) icon. Navigating with the browser is pretty intuitive. And to the top right are the icons we’ll be exploring in a bit: Reading View, Favorites, the Hub (Reading List), Web Notes, Share, and finally the Settings icon. The search/address bar is in the middle of the screen. Once you add a home icon, it will appear next. While you probably know your way around a modern browser by now, here’s the quick guide to navigating Edge: To the upper left are back- and forward-arrows, followed by the loop icon to reload a page. From left: Reading View, Favorites, The Hub, Web Notes, Share, and the ellipsis Settings menu. (There’s not even a homepage icon unless you choose to add one.) You can choose your own home page, though-we’ll get to that in just a bit.īelow the standard Windows 10 navigation icons (gray bar) lie the Microsoft Edge icons. The bold decision that Edge made was to swap your home screen for its own by default, Microsoft chooses what you look at. Remember, you can either type a Web address directly into the search box, or else enter a search term or two that Bing can hunt down.

Note that you’ll have the option of configuring this in the Settings menu.īy default, Edge uses the Bing search engine to search, which we’ve found to be the equal to Google in most regards. Launch a new tab (CTRL+T), and Edge may show you this view.
