Microsoft's new Edge browser has been well received since its launch. Due to the emergence of preview channels such as Canary/Dev, its software updates are also very fast.

Recently, the Canary version of Edge has changed, the address bar has been simplified, and the URL prefix of http://www has been hidden by default.
