Google Chrome gaining on Internet Explorer's top spot
In March, Internet Explorer fell from 44.79% to 43.40% while Chrome went from 36.56% to 39.09%, which is quite a large jump. This month also saw Firefox, Safari, and Opera lose market share, the biggest loser was Firefox which went from 11.68% to just 10.54% market share.
Microsoft's Edge browser has seen an increase in users but not enough to explain Internet Explorer's 1.39% decrease, which must mean users decided to ditch Internet Explorer, for Chrome. During the same period, Edge rose to 3.55% up from February when it was at 3.02% market share, an increase of 0.53%.
Last month, Microsoft released Windows 10 build 14291 to those enrolled on the Insider Preview program. With this update a new version of Edge was included with support for extensions consisting of Microsoft Translator, Mouse Gestures, and an early preview of the Reddit Enhancement Suite. In a future release more extensions such as AdBlock Plus and Evernote will arrive, which could make the browser more attractive for people to use.
