    To change your default browser from Microsoft Edge to Google Chrome, you can follow these steps:

    1. Open Settings: Click on the Start menu and select Settings (the gear icon).
    2. Go to Apps: In the Settings window, click on Apps.
    3. Default Apps: On the left sidebar, select Default apps.
    4. Change Web Browser: Scroll down to the Web browser section. You will see Microsoft Edge listed there. Click on it, and a list of installed browsers will appear.
    5. Select Google Chrome: Choose Google Chrome from the list to set it as your default browser.

    After completing these steps, any links you click will open in Google Chrome instead of Microsoft Edge.

    Hi,

    To make sure the information that will be provided is aligned to your end goal, did you mean use Google as the "search engine is Microsoft edge"

    If yes, You can change the search engine in Microsoft Edge by going into the browser’s settings and switching the default search provider. Open Edge, go to Settings, then look for Privacy, search, and services. Scroll down to the section called Address bar and search. There you can choose which search engine Edge uses when you type in the address bar—such as Google, Bing, or another provider. Once you select a new default, Edge will use that search engine for all your searches instead of the one it came with by default.
