Try my new extension

NTP and Command Extension for Edge

The default NTP of Edge only show upto eight tiles and a tiny favorite bar on the top. This left most of the space on New Tab useless. I developed an extension to make a much better use of space. You can find the Favorites, History, Downloads, Documents, Top sites and Quick links.

 

 

Shows up on top of any Tab.

By using a simple shortcut Alt+X it can show on top of any open tab (except the edge:// urls)

Showing on top techcommunity page while I am writing this post.

Turn your Omni Box into a universal Search 

Just type .<space> and you search through :

1. Top Sites

2. History : type history<space><search_query>

3. Switch Tabs : type tab<space><search_query>

4. Settings

5. Close Tabs : do same steps as switching tabs just when you find a tab add -c to the text in omni box like act:tabSwitch-<tab_id>-c

How to Install

1. Go to https://github.com/Maan2003/command

2. Download / clone the repository

3. Enable developer mode in Edge

4. Load Unpacked Extension in the top right corner

5. Suggestion: Go to Keyboard Shortcuts and add Alt+X for the command extension
