News on March 9 Although both Google Chrome and Microsoft Edge use Chromium as the source engine code, and Microsoft's new Edge supports Chrome extensions, Microsoft Edge users are still warned of potential security risks when accessing the Chrome Web Store. Many people believe that this is Google's trick to prevent users from using Microsoft's new Edge.
It has now been discovered that the Google Chrome Web Store no longer displays security extension warning messages. Currently, if you open the Chrome Web Store in Microsoft Edge, a message will now appear that says, "You can now add Chrome Web Store extensions to Microsoft Edge - click Add to Chrome." However, it's worth noting The thing is, you won't be able to use Edge extensions on Google Chrome.
Previously, Google displayed a warning to Microsoft Edge users and reminded them whether to "safely use extensions" to switch to the Chrome browser. Google later said that the company was displaying this message because Microsoft Edge does not support Safe Browsing, so it would not be able to remotely detect and remove malicious extensions. Microsoft responded that the new version of Edge extension store updates are queried every 2-4 hours, and threat updates are queried every 30 minutes. It's safe to use extensions on the Microsoft Edge browser, and you don't have to worry about Google's warnings.
Although the battle between Google Chrome and Microsoft Edge has eased, it is certain that the battle for users between the two will continue.
