Frequently Asked Questions

Does Microsoft Edge have a built-in VPN?

Kind of! Edge includes a feature called Edge Secure Network, which uses Cloudflare's network to encrypt your browser traffic. However, it isn't a full-blown VPN. It won't encrypt apps outside Edge, and it doesn't let you manually pick custom country locations.

Which VPN is best for Microsoft Edge?

Windscribe takes the top spot because it gives you a dedicated Edge extension packed with extra tools, like tracker blocking, cookie deletion, and location spoofing, without hogging system memory or slowing down your browser. Plus, we don't log your data!

How to use a VPN on MS Edge?

Grab the Windscribe extension directly from the Microsoft Edge Add-ons store, click the puzzle piece icon in your top bar to pin it, sign into your account, and hit the power button to connect instantly.

Does Microsoft offer a free VPN?

Yes, but with tight strings attached. Microsoft's built-in Secure Network gives you 5 GB of free data per month, but you have to sign into a personal Microsoft account to use it, and you can't choose where your traffic routes. Windscribe doubles that limit to 10 GB and lets you pick actual server locations.
