    Hi MehmetBaserdem,

    The new Microsoft Edge (Chromium based) is NOT compatible for Windows RT 8.1 because it is installed independently by downloading it from a web browser (https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/edge) and not from the Microsoft Store App.

    As soon as an RT version becomes available to download from the Microsoft Store App, that is the only time you can download it to an RT 8.1 device but as of now, there is no news about that.

    Sincerely,

    Lee

    Hello, as I actually have a Microsoft Surface RT 8.1, can Microsoft inform when the Microsoft Edge App needed will be available for install on the hardware/software  Microsoft product. Many sites are no longer supporting Explorer, so it is absolutely needed!

    Hi, 

    I am also using RT 81. I Totally agree with cpdch.

    Can Microsoft release edge for this? Many sites already do not support IE.

    Will they release for any 3rd party browser?

    The surface RT I use is a fine tool, but shame on you Microsoft! It can't be that difficult to put the link to Microsoft Edge in the Store.

    Come on! Help us out!

    I payed good money fot this device when it came out.  So, I deserve good service!!!

    Get it done!!
