How Microsoft Edge interacts with operating system permissions when sharing your location with a website. Windows can use information such as your IP address, nearby Wi-Fi access points, and GPS data, if available, to estimate your precise or imprecise location coordinates and pass this info to Microsoft Edge.

With Edge Chromium, you can add multiple profiles. Profiles allow multiple users to operate in a shared environment while maintaining access to their personalized browser settings, bookmarks, and extensions.

(For exceptions, see Skipped releases.)Use this tool to find and remove specific prevalent threats and reverse the changes that they made (see Covered malware families).For comprehensive malware detection and removal, consider using Windows Defender Offline or Microsoft Safety Scanner.
