Microsoft continues its desperate attempt to convert more users to Edge

Microsoft seems to be getting more aggressive with its push to make users switch to its Edge browser., after a browser update, Microsoft Edge prompts you with a full-page ad that states: “Welcome back, we have new things for you to explore.” And because the page takes up the title bar, you can’t ‘X’ out of it either. You have to click the “Get Started” button at the bottom of the page to move on.

From there it brings you to another page, which is another full-screen ad for Edge that tries to convince you to make it your default browser. This time around you can uncheck the box at the bottom that states"Use Microsoft recommended browser settings," then click the “Save and continue” box below that.

After that, you finally reach the page that thanks you for updating Edge to the latest version, indicating that this whole process might occur after every update instead of after a new install or first OS launch. There’s a chance that the frequency of this process could be in error, but it’s hard to say given Microsoft’s own history on the matter.
