Microsoft is also making sure the browser is more secure by introducing the Microsoft Edge sandbox to block Remote Code Execution (RCE) attacks, which makes it harder for hackers to exploit vulnerabilities. This only means faster page loads without significantly impacting system resources. In this new version, Microsoft Edge includes support for Brotli (opens in new tab), which is a compression format that improves compression and decompression ratio speeds. While support extensions has been available since the Anniversary Update came out, Microsoft is now letting developers get access to over 30 percent more APIs than before, including access to roaming data between devices, favorites, and the ability to communicate with other apps installed on your computer. Similar to Windows 10, Microsoft Edge is also getting support for 3D with WebVR to allow websites to deliver virtual reality experiences, just like in desktop apps. However, you'll continue to be in control and allow Flash content once (or always) by clicking the puzzle icon that appears in the address bar.
On version 40.15063, the browser now blocks Adobe Flash content by default to improve security, performance, and battery life on mobile devices. In addition to the new features, Microsoft Edge on the Windows 10 Creators Update gains several smaller tweaks and enhancements that make the experience a little more complete. The features available inside about:flags are to help developers create new apps and services, and for Microsoft to test future functionalities for the browser. It should be noted that for the most part, regular users never have to adjust these options. This enables real-time communication without needing a plugin, and it's the reason the Enable experimental H.264/AVC support option is now missing from about:flags. Alongside the new additions, remember that some features found in the previous version have been deprecated or are now part of Microsoft Edge, which is one of the reasons some of the options are no longer available.įor example, the browser now ships with WebRTC 1.0 API, and support for VP8 and H.264/AVC video codecs for RTC.
