Microsoft is currently developing a feature for its new Chromium-based Edge browser that, when enabled, will automatically block “potentially unwanted apps” and adware. These programs usually take the form of browser toolbars, extensions, or unclosable advertisements, but those are just a few examples.
As of writing, Edge’s anti-adware feature is only available to testers. You’ll need to download a potentially-unstable beta version of the browser to gain access to it.
If the possibility of running into bugs doesn’t scare you, though, feel free to snag Microsoft Edge’s Beta from the Edge Insider website.
