Silverlight Support??
It looks like your out of luck on this one. Since the new edge is a slightly modified chromium, it has no NPAPI support at all (it was removed completely a few years back) that silverlight depends on.
Your only option for silverlight is IE, or an ancient version of chrome or firefox.
But if you absolutely do not want to open up IE, there is an extension for chrome (that you can add to "new" edge) called https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/ie-tab/hehijbfgiekmjfkfjpbkbammjbdenadd
It basically hosts a IE session within a chrome tab.
thanks - yes I saw that, but I can't see it in the extensions available right now. Perhaps it will come later?
Maybe. But if you really need it you can get it off google's extension store, new edge will pick up and install it.
