Microsoft is testing a new feature for its Chromium-based Edge browser that is debated as to how necessary it is. Accordingly, the problem of the browser closing automatically when the browser tabs are closed is a thing of the past for most of us. However, according to research, there are not a few users who like this feature. Here is the new Edge feature and what it offers.
With the new Edge browser feature, the application closes when the last tab is closed
Microsoft has started testing a new feature in the Canary version of Edge. This means that closing the last tab will no longer close the browser window. In fact, the window will close and reopen with empty tabs. As you know, when you first open Edge and other browsers, a page you specify opens. If you don’t set a specific page, Edge opens its home page, which is a page with MSN news and a search bar.
When you close all tabs, the Edge browser will not die and will reappear with an empty tab. This is a useful feature if you don’t like the browser closing when the last tab is closed. Conversely, there are those who prefer not to use the cross to close the browser.
It’s a bit of an artificial debate, but closing the browser window after the last tab is now a part of our lives. Edge seems to divide users into two with this new feature. At the moment, the feature of not closing with the last tab is still in the testing phase. However, it is possible that this feature will also appear in the next Edge update.

Browser tabs first came into our lives in 1998. However, Mozilla Firefox, which became famous for its browser tabs and add-ons, achieved important firsts in this regard. Nowadays, browsers such as Chrome and Edge, which work with add-ons like Mozilla Firefox, have an important share in the market.
Chrome has a significant superiority in the browser market. In this sense, it ranks first among the most used browsers with 62.73 percent. In second place is Safari, which has become widespread with the growth of the Apple ecosystem, with 20.59 percent. Opera and Firefox have 3 percent and 2.79 percent usage percentages, respectively.
Do you find it annoying when the browser tab closes and the browser closes? Or does the new Edge browser tab feature really solve the annoying problem? We look forward to your comments.
