But before you do, make sure that your search engine returns the results you want and that it’s a safe option. Edge, like many browsers, makes it relatively simple to switch to the default search engine. And despite Bing’s widespread usage and benefits, many users prefer to utilize competing search engines like Google or Yahoo. It’s no surprise that Bing would be the default, as Microsoft tries to encourage more users to adopt Bing. But if you ignore it and try to search for something by typing a word or phrase in the search bar, you’ll find that Bing is already the default option. When you open up Edge for the first time or after a long hiatus, you may be greeted with a bar that asks, “Would you like to set Microsoft Edge as your default browser?” that lets you set Bing as default.

Microsoft Edge is a powerful browsing tool for users looking to access the World Wide Web quickly and easily.
