What Does it Mean to Use a Computer 'Properly?' When we become aware of improper redirection, we issue a fix.īut there's nothing "improper" about the redirection as contemplated in the example above, and it's interesting that Microsoft feels it has the right to say otherwise.
At the same time, Windows also offers certain end-to-end customer experiences in both Windows 10 and Windows 11, the search experience from the taskbar is one such example of an end-to-end experience that is not designed to be redirected. Windows openly enables applications and services on its platform, including various web browsers. When asked about its decision to prevent end users from changing Edge as a default browser for certain activities in Windows 11, a Microsoft spokesperson said: The company recently admitted that its decision to prevent end users from changing their browsers in Windows 11 via EdgeDetector is a deliberate crackdown on choice that the company does not intend to roll back. This kind of user-unfriendly behavior is par for the course at Microsoft these days. When I opened this page the first time, Sync was enabled and active by default. Of course they can turn synching off, but it’s too late." It says "confirm" because I recreated the screenshot.

Google definitely tries to push end users to activate synchronization services when they first sign into the browser, but if you turn the feature off it stays off thereafter.
I don't use synchronization services between browsers because I have no interest in sharing this information with Google, Firefox, Microsoft, or any other company.
When I launched Edge this morning, I was surprised to see a message informing me that Sync was now enabled and my data was being uploaded to the cloud, to be shared with other PCs where I was also logged in.
