I am one of the very first person who raised this request and waiting for it since 2019. I have had several discussions justifying its purpose through numerous emails and meeting calls with your team, yet noting is materialized. The feature of transferring extensions or add-ons between two user accounts has been there since 2009 on several platforms like Chrome, Firefox, Apple, and more, and yet it is still missing from Edge for too long. Please pause on to the cosmetic and fancy features, instead work on this fundamental feature ASAP! Please explain to the community why you are not prioritizing them when every other platform store is offering this for years since day 1? |

@Bhuvana-Priya Your team has been making such futile statements since 2019, and not showing any sense of seriousness and prolonging this year after year. In the last five years, hundreds of super-advanced technologies have been launched, like ChatGPT, GeminiAI, SpaceShip, BingAI, etc., but your team failed to release this one basic feature despite cloning the Chromium project. Who drafted this poor roadmap that is failing to deliver a single feature? What is there to test this basic feature? What is the concrete definition(timelines) of "once" here? |
