The AV1 Video Extension does not enable AVIF image support in Edge. Microsoft have not stated anywhere they are working on it. Microsoft have no official status on AVIF support. I cannot find any official word from Microsoft on it. The correct answer here is that we simply don't know as of. See here: on licensing things to clear up. It is a licensing issue holding things up. Recommended.Alex Russell, Microsoft Partner PM on the Edge team and a Blink API owner has provided an update. Verdict:įinally, Edge Chromium comes to Windows 10 and we're impressed. So you can import some of your favourite Chrome extensions from the get-go.Įdge will now replace the old 'Edge' on Windows 10. What's instantly noticeable is support for existing Chrome extensions. Right now, only your favourites are synchronised.

Unlike Chrome, Microsoft has deployed their own account system which will eventually synchronise your data including favourites, extensions, themes and browsing history.

This is the trust placed by end users in Microsoft and their development. When Edge was first launched, in a rather basic form, with limited extension support, we used to receive complaints from people who'd bought a security suite and wanted a refund as their new security wouldn't support Edge (overlooking this was an issue with Edge, not their security). Despite having far more powerful alternatives, users paranoid about the dangers lurking around the internet would insist on using Internet Explorer.

Microsoft never appears to be completely happy with their web browser.
