Microsoft has now silently pushed an update to the Microsoft Edge browser on Windows. The latest update to the Microsoft Edge browser comes in the Canary branch if the browser.
The update to Microsoft Edge Canary comes with an app version 85.0.555.0 to Windows Insiders on the Canary branch of the same. The Ask Cortana feature is not fully polished and could be scrapped soon. So with that limitation in mind, the company seems to be moving to a new simpler universal sidebar search option.
To use sidebar search you need to,
- Open the Microsoft Edge browser with the above-mentioned version
- Open a website on the browser and highlight a word or phrase. Right-click here and ‘Search in Bing in Sidebar for’
- Then make your search query and it will appear there
