Microsoft is a strong opponent to Google Chrome and is continuously improving its Edge browser to gain users. In the latest development, Microsoft added a new feature to the Edge browser that allows the user to import data from Google Chrome more often.
For your information, Microsoft Edge offers automatic data importing from another browser including Chrome. Previously, the Microsoft Edge import data page’s settings menu used to simply offer a one-time import option for your data including syncing over bookmarks, passwords, browsing history, and more.

By just hitting the import browser data option, the feature directly opens a menu for one-time import from any other browser on your computer. Now, Microsoft allows the browser users to import data from Google Chrome on each launch, which is really impressive.
Currently, this feature is rolling out widely and is even available on Edge 101. It is also reported that the upcoming updates will bring much more features to provide a new user experience. However, the Edge 104, now has a Canary channel, redesigned import page with the new look.
Data importing from the different browsers is not a new idea but Microsoft is trying to do something innovative in existing concepts. So, the latest changes make it easier for Google Chrome users to use Edge more often. To be mentioned, including preview functionalities the Microsoft Edge can now also obtain or import the open tabs as well as extensions from Google Chrome.
