This updated guide examines Microsoft Edge May Rise to Second Place, Behind Google Chrome and organizes the essential facts, background, and practical takeaways in clear American English.

Comparing current market share, this goal of Microsoft may not seem realistic but with the strong growth of Microsoft Edge recently, it promises a bright future.

In December 2019, NetMarketShare published the latest data about the browser market. Specifically, the market leading browser is still Google Chrome with 65.5% market share, Firefox with 8.2% in second place. Microsoft Edge closely follows with 6.4%.

Just a few months ago, Microsoft Edge accounted for just over 4% of the market share. But thanks to the effects of the Chromium-powered Microsoft Edge version, the browser market share has grown significantly, even surpassing Internet Explorer.

In the next few months, the market share of Microsoft Edge is expected to grow strongly from devices with Windows 10, Windows 7, 8 and macOS.

The Chromium Edge version is expected to be released through Windows Update to replace the current Edge, allowing users to experience the same exciting features as on Chrome right on Microsoft Edge.

Let's wait and see how Chromium Edge will put pressure on other browsers in the near future.
