Stop Using Microsoft Edge To Download Chrome -- Unless You Want Malware

        For many people who purchase a new Windows 10 PC, Microsoft's
        built-in Edge browser has one purpose: to download an
        alternate browser like Google Chrome. The most common way to
        do this for people who don't have the URL memorized? Type
        "download Chrome" in the address bar and click the first
        result provided by Bing search. Unfortunately those
        unsuspecting users have a high chance of downloading malware
        and adware. That's because Bing has been serving up malicious
        but highly visible Google Chrome ads for months.
