Offer valid for one person/account within seven days of joining the challenge”, the advertisement reads. “Search with the Edge bar for three days to earn extra 3,100 points. Microsoft Edge ad on desktop offering gift cards | Image Courtesy: Īs you can see in the above screenshot, Microsoft is running a seven days challenge where you can get Gift Card if you search the web using Edge for three days. If you’re on Windows 10 or 11 and have Edge bar (an experimental feature enabled), you’ll soon see an advert on the desktop that pops up automatically and tells you to use Edge to get Gift Cards. Keep the Microsoft Edge icon (blue on a black background) pinned rather than the Microsoft Edge Legacy (white on a blue background) icon, because the latter always opens with the Microsoft Start page full of cheesy news stories rather than any tabs.On Windows 11 and 10, Microsoft now also shows adverts on the desktop attempting to persuade people to switch to Edge by offering them Gift Cards, in yet another move to increase the market share of the revamped browser. If you want to make legacy Edge your default browser you can do that from Settings > Apps > Default apps, but the browser you pick there is Microsoft Edge rather than Microsoft Edge Legacy and that doesn't open from the Microsoft Edge Legacy icon, so when you open a link in another application, you (rather confusingly) end up with two legacy Edge browser icons.
That puts Microsoft Edge Legacy on the Start menu if you had it pinned to the taskbar or Start menu, you have to do it again because the new Edge browser will have taken over those pins. Next you need to run the Edge installer again (ignore the warnings that you already have it installed). Or you can create the DWORD Allowsxs, again in Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\EdgeUpdate, and set the value to 1.
If you use Group Policy, you can enable the Allow Microsoft Edge Side by Side browser experience group policy.
