Microsoft has not stopped forcing Edge on Windows 11 users

Microsoft announces vague changes to the default web browser setting for Windows Insider. Nothing but wishful thinking. Still force-opens web links in Edge.

I just dipped my toe in the last few days or so. It’s missing some QoL that existed in previous versions.

I run 3 monitors. My center one is my primary display with the other 2 just being extra real estate. I wanted my taskbar to be on the left monitor and out of the way. On W10, you’d unlock the taskbar, drag it to the monitor you wanted it, then lock it up again.

W11 will either let you have it on all of your monitors or only your primary monitor. I don’t want all my stuff opening on a secondary monitor by default.

I know it’s petty, but it’s frustrating to have an easy feature stripped

Wanting good usability isn’t petty
