Microsoft Edge on my Windows 10 machine has started taking up a big chunk of the screen.

I got rid of this once by clicking a downward pointing arrow. It is making me crazy. Any help would be appreciated.

1. Download Chrome, install it, make it the default browser

2. Chrome is a giant memory hog

I use it, but once you had an extension or two it starts eating memory.

3. ALL browsers are memory hogs.

Are you adding all the same extensions and add-ins to Edge to compare?

Here are a couple of articles on the browsers and their testing and reasoning agrees with mine. Though, as an IT support professional I use Chrome, FireFox, Edge, IE and sometimes Opera on my desktop.

To be fair, here is an article about Edge that puts it in a better light than Chrome.
