It's Microsoft's fault and not Webroot. Microsoft don't allow many extensions for Edge at this time and we don't know when that will change.

Well I feel the same way. If I can't have Webroot Extensions then I don't want to even get close to Edge!;)

For as much hooply they have given about how great the new browser is... they seem to be doing just about everything they can do to KEEP people from liking it and using it.  I HATE it, and the lack of being able to use the extensions I desire (Webroot) is a huge part of that.

Looks like support for Extensions in Edge is going to be delayed until 2016:-

With just Edge open and nothing else.
I have been testing Edge with start page, as my default browser, for a few weeks now and don't find toooo much fault with it so far. But does have limitations.

Yes it does!!

The padlock shows on my taskbar when Edge is open and the active window, though it does not matter much to me.  I do not use Edge except to test things to make replies here  :S
