Downloading Chrome using Microsoft Edge is already a nightmare filled with banners and stop-gaps, and nothing seems to be stopping Microsoft from adding even more. From a report: Last weekend, we noticed that an attempt to download Google Chrome using Microsoft Edge results in the latter opening its sidebar with a poll, asking you to explain to Microsoft how you could dare try downloading Google Chrome. Of course, the exact wording is more tame, but you get the idea. Now, besides dismissing several banners and a full-size ad injected on the Chrome website, Edge wants you to answer a questionnaire with the following options: We love having you!Can you please take a minute to tell us why you are trying another browser? I can't search Google easilyI can't access my Google documentsI don't have my favorites or passwords hereToo many ads and pop-upsI don't like the news feedIt's too slowMy websites don't work on Microsoft EdgeMy reason is not listed
