AdBlocker Request

This is just a request for another extension called "AdGuard AdBlocker" I really like all the customizability of this extension. I use it on Edge classic and works great. It has lots of options. ...

You can install this extension on the Microsoft Edge preview builds also.

If you go to our article here, it goes into a step by step process to install out of store extensions.

Hope this works for you,

Well, it might except for the fact that it is coming from Chrome... I'll go without it and wait for the safety of getting it from the MS Store when I know MS has gone through its coding to make sure it is safe to use..... V-FRROME

Thanks though for you response and info...

Getting the extension from the Chrome Web Store is fairly safe. It's not like Microsoft and Google are *that* different in terms of review processes, right? I don't know. The Chrome Web Store obviously has the bigger library, has more users and more downloads. Google has more accountability with more users, but it and Mozilla sometimes face malicious extensions.

The best way to see if you can trust it is by download count, affiliated websites, screenshots and reviews.
