shame on Microsoft they haven't been providing any updates for windows arm devices for quite a while now and even the IE is not supporting many essential sites. I want Microsoft to atleast provide basic updates to us arm users. It isn't inexpensive so that must a courtesy of them to us

I love my Microsoft Surface RT with Windows 8.1. But as others have written, I can no longer access various websites with Windows Explorer. Gmail loads very slowly or not at all. We need a new browser or at least and updated browser!
Thanks and please let us know when something is available.
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?
I, too, need a new browser for my Win 8.1 RT. PLEASE give RT users a new browser.
