    Microsoft Edge

    Microsoft Windows 10 will ship with two browsers: Internet Explorer 11 and the new Edge browser.

    The Edge browser will be the default browser, and Internet Explorer 11 will be available to support legacy workflows. The new Edge browser will not have any support for ActiveX plug-ins. Therefore, the Acrobat/Reader plug-in won’t work with Edge. Use Internet Explorer 11 to open PDFs. To enable the Acrobat/Reader plug-in in Internet Explorer, see the steps in the previous section.
