If, like most internet users nowadays, you're already familiar ad blockers, there shouldn't be much of surprise here. Adguard will effectively block all ads, whether they be banners, interstitial, or video, or anything in between. You can also use Adguard's spyware and tracking filter to curb all forms of tracking you might encounter while browsing the web. The result should be faster page loading and a more privacy-focused browsing experience in Edge.

Edge's selection of extensions is somewhat limited compared to other browsers, so it's always good to see another arrive. If you're interested, you can grab Adguard and give it a shot from the Windows Store now.
