We live and work in browsers. It's where we spend most of our time — and it's where we waste most of our time as well. Web browsing is slow, inefficient, and full of time-sapping annoyances.
But it needn't be that way. You can turn your browser into a lean, mean productivity machine. To do it, just follow these tips for Microsoft Edge in Windows 10 or 11. You'll learn how to switch between home and work profiles, put idle tabs to sleep to speed up your PC, tap into the power of Microsoft's Copilot AI assistant, and more.
(Note that these tips are written for the most recently updated version of Edge in Windows 11 25H2 and Windows 10 22H2. Things may be slightly different if you use a different Windows version, and not all of these features are available for Edge on macOS or other platforms.)
So let's get started — time's a-wasting, and so is your productivity.
1. Switch between work and personal profiles
With remote and hybrid work models now common, many people use the same device for work and personal use. When it comes to using a web browser, that can quickly become problematic.
Mixing work and personal favorites makes it far more difficult to quickly get to important work websites or personal websites. When you're working, you don't want to wade through hundreds of links to family photos, vacation destinations, and YouTube videos of cats befriending parrots when you're just lookin

All of the major AI providers want you to use, and ideally stay within, their super apps, and now Microsoft is looking to capture that attention, too.
During an earnings call this week, CEO Satya Nadella confirmed that the tech giant is building a Copilot ‘super app' that will be rolled out this quarter. The new platform will bring together various Copilot tools, including chat, Cowork, long-running Autopilot agents, and the always-on Microsoft Scout, powered by OpenClaw.
Microsoft said the super app will be wired into many of its other governance platforms, including Agent 365, IT Ops, SecOps, FinOps, and business processes. And, it said, CRM and ERP systems will "serve as skills and plug-ins that go into core work."
"You're able to take that enterprise-wide workflow and wire it into the super app," Nadella said, describing it as "the coming together of a new way to work."
With this move, Microsoft will compete with OpenAI's ChatGPT Work, Claude Cowork, and a growing number of others trying to capture as much of a user's workflow as possible. It could prove a strong contender, as everyday Copilot "usage intensity" is at the same level as that of Outlook or Teams, Nadella said, and paid seats now surpass 30 million.
Every model should be ‘swappable'
Even as it builds a super app to bridge workflows, Microsoft is acknowledging enterprise demand for model choice. Customers are making it clear that

A group of industry stalwarts is banding together to help enterprises, services providers and telcos fight cyber foes.
The Network Resilience Coalition includes AT&T, Broadcom, BT Group, Cisco Systems, Fortinet, Intel, Juniper Networks, Lumen Technologies, Palo Alto Networks, Verizon and VMware. Its aim is to deliver open and collaborative techniques to help improve the security of network hardware and software across the industry.
The coalition was brought together under the Center for Cybersecurity Policy & Law, a nonprofit organization dedicated to improving the security of networks, devices and critical infrastructure. The Center has a broad security mission, but at least for now, it wants the Resilience group to focus on routers, switches and firewalls that are older, may have reached end-of-life vendor support, or have been overlooked for security patching or replacement.
