Microsoft adds a Performance mode to Edge that makes it even faster and the ability to add text to PDF documents

The older ones may remember that legendary turbo mode that some computers flaunted. And something that also seeks to improve system performance is what Microsoft has introduced in the latest version of Edge Canary by adding a new Performance mode that we can activate in the browser settings.

The enhancement is available in build 91.0.856.0 and higher builds of Edge within the Canary Channel and what it does is improve the Browser responsiveness by optimizing speed, responsiveness, memory, CPU and battery usage.

Improving performance

"We must activate the new Performance mode> manually within the System section>"

What this mode does is force the tab timer in idle mode to become unavailable, allowing you to increase the speed when we use Edge and navigate with different tabs In addition, the function can be activated with the following code on the command line:

"

As described by Microsoft, the new feature helps optimize speed, responsiveness, memory, CPU, and battery usage. Performance improvements may vary depending on your individual specifications and browsing habits."

PDF Improvements

But it is not the only new feature that comes to the Microsoft browser, since it also releases the ability to add text to a PDF document This function allows, as its name indicates that text can be added to any PDF document that we have open in Microsoft Edge, either by using the keyboard or the stylus if we have a touch screen.

However, in the latter case, it seems that this feature is only available for some users, so if not you , you will need to wait for Microsoft to enable it on the server side.

Remember that you can try Edge Canary as well as any of the other two versions (Beta and Dev, accessing the development channels and downloading the version that interests you.
