Windows search sidebar

I can't remember a time when I didn't have the attached in the menu, but I have no idea what they are. I assume they are for developers? It would great to be able to toggle certain elements to choose whether or not they appear in the menu. I loved Ask Cortana in legacy Edge because it gave you quick access to some relevant search about something in a webpage without navigating away from that webpage. That is what made it great. It doesn't really matter if it's powered by Cortana or not.

Can't wait to try this out in the preview builds. Thank you guys. Sidebar search is yet another standout feature for Edge. I also totally agree with you when it comes to the context menu. There are already options which are also in the Print and I would also remove "Open in Immersive Reader", because it can be accessed by the button in the address bar.

I really love the feature, I used this feature a lot in Legacy Edge. I would like to suggest in this feature that can we have the option to double-click a word and search that word in sidebar. This would make things easier to search words in sidebar. Good news! You can now find words or phrases on a webpage. Woot, just tried out this sidebar search feature and it is great.. I Love it!! Thanks Team for another great addon feature!!

The problem with the Find Popup is that it closes anytime you go to a new page, so searching within a site with multiple pages 1, 2, 3 etc. I think of a solution like the find sidebar in MS Word where all finds are listed. Imagine a large webpage e. Hi Neon For me the Find Popup stays open even when I go to another page on the same website, and when I switch between tabs.

Show only Search instead for. Did you mean:. Sign In. Thanks - Microsoft Edge Search team. The sidebar is cool. I also use it to find conversations easier, like this one. Thanks for your reply and I like it that the Edge team is so active in looking into problems fixing issues.

I also have a suggestion. Like the Legacy Edge, it would be good if the new Edge could offer showing related news articles to the page currently being viewed. In Edge Legacy, if I am reading an article on a trending topic, then a Cortana Icon pops up in the URL bar and suggests similar articles and other info. I would love it if this gets implemented here too. I download canary and dev edge versions today and still cannot see sidebar search as an option.

What should I do to enable this feature? Martinus Hamers. Looks great! What about an option to have the "work results" open up by default. For deployment of Edge in Enterprise environments and get people to switch to Edge from Chrome this kind of nice integrations and reduction of clicks are really helping.

Peter Dennington. You need to discuss Google Chrome development with Google ;. The results will include files, people, and internal web sites, as well as Power BI dashboards coming in June and reports, officials said. The WORK results page is now generally available. Microsoft also will be rolling out this month an update to Edge Add-ons which will provide new categories, new search capabilities, and a new layout starting this month.

The Edge team is also adding new capabilities to the Collections feature in the browser. Integration with Pinterest will enable users to export their collections to Pinterest so that saved pages and images will show up in a new board in a user's Pinterest account. Collections also will be getting the ability to send saved Collections to OneNote, the same way users can send to Excel and Word today.

Both the Pinterest and Send to OneNote capabilities will come to Insiders within a week or so, officials said. Business users are going to get the ability to sync on-premises; the Automatic Profile Switching feature, which prompts users to switch to a work profile if they're trying to open a link requiring work credentials from their personal profile; and Windows Information Protection, which adds an additional layer of content protection.

Some of these capabilities will be available in preview during Build this week. Best Chromebook for students Student-proof laptops. Windows 11 setup: Which user account type should you choose? The default list displays the full search results but you may switch to Image or Video results only using the interface. A search field is displayed as well to modify the search term to run different searches in the sidebar.

The main benefit of Edge's new Search in Sidebar feature is that users can keep a website open in the browser and display search results at the same time in the same tab.

Something similarly can be achieved with different means as well, e. Downside to Microsoft's native integration of the feature is that it is restricted to the company's own Bing search engine. Now You : How useful is a sidebar search option in your opinion? I tried using Vivaldi a few days ago. The browser is so bad. I thought I could get used to the user-unfriendly UI, but there are far worse problems.

On many websites Vivaldi is literally struggling. Using Discord for web and scrolling previous chat messages causes it to stutter to an annoying levels. Interacting with YouTube buttons and full screen transitions is also a pain. I remember a couple of years ago VIvaldi was unusable on wallhaven. Do note that I disabled UI animation both within Vivaldi and Windows 7 , so that probably also helped a bit.

Before I would be OK with jumping through hoops to get things done and I would even be excited about it, but nowadays I just want to get shit done with zero effort. How searching for something in a sidebar is more productive than searching in a new tab? This feature was somewhat meaningful in Classic Edge when used with Cortana because it allowed some context specific searches and extra information on the fly.

Mildely useful, but actually not very convincing. It sounds hilly illegal by European law to restrict the search engine to your one brand.
