I ordered a new computer with Windows 10 which has the Microsoft Edge as it's browser.  I was wondering, can I add another browser such as Firefox or Google Chrome?  

 

I was just curious if I can have two browsers on one computer?  Thanks.

I use three browsers with Window 8.1. You can use Firefox and Google Chrome along with Window 10 Edge browser.

You should read this article:

Just remember to download Chrome directly from Google.

DH put Win10 on his laptop which already had 8.1 or whatever they called it. He did tell me about the new Edge browser. He said they still have IE on there but have hidden it. He is using Chrome & IE. I guess when he has more time he will checkout The Edge. I have always used IE. If we are moving on I told DH we need a new monitor that's touchscreen. He's all for that because he can use this monitor outside on the patio to watch TV since it's a TV/Monitor.

Good point, I might not have remembered that.

I have four browsers on my Windows laptop:

 

*Internet Explorer - came preinstalled, it's my 3rd backup

 

*Google Chrome - my fave, have used since its 2008 inception

 

*Opera - my first backup, has been revamped to look & act more like Chrome

 

*Mozilla Waterfox - my 2nd backup, specifically for 64-bit systems

Thanks @feline groovy.  I think I'm going to use Google Chrome.  I have used it on other computers and like it.
