As we have extensively covered over the week, the Windows 10 Anniversary Update finally was released worldwide yesterday on August 2nd. With the update came a new Windows Store, dark mode and new emojis, an improved Start menu and Action Center, and so much more. While those features are great, the Anniversary Update also brings many changes to Microsoft Edge, with the most important change being support for extensions. To celebrate, we’ve given all the extensions a look, and have included Microsoft’s download links, and descriptions for you below.
