• Microsoft stole my Chrome tabs, and it wants yours, too

    From OSnews@21:1/5 to All on Tue Jan 30 00:02:43 2024
    Last week, I turned on my PC, installed a Windows update, and rebooted to find Microsoft Edge automatically open with the Chrome tabs I was working on before the update. I don't use Microsoft Edge regularly, and I have Google Chrome set as my default
    browser. Bleary-eyed at 9AM, it took me a moment to realize that Microsoft Edge had simply taken over where I'd left off in Chrome. I couldn't believe my eyes.

    I never imported my data into Microsoft Edge, nor did I confirm whether I wanted to import my tabs. But here was Edge automatically opening after a Windows update with all the Chrome tabs I'd been working on. I didn't even realize I was using Edge at
    first, and I was confused why all my tabs were suddenly logged out.

    I would never accept such disregard for users from my computer.
