The difference between the two installers is that the Enterprise installer (MicrosoftEdgeEnterpriseX64.msi) and the Microsoft Edge Insider installer (MicrosoftEdgeSetupBeta.exe) is that the Enterprise installer embeds Version 79.0.309.56 into Windows 10, replacing EdgeClassic, while the Microsoft Edge Insider installer does not embed Version 79. May 11, 2020 The Microsoft Edge full-screen experience is just like Google Chrome’s full-screen mode. Chrome users can activate and deactivate full-screen mode in the same way. Edge isn’t all the same as Chrome, however—unlike Chrome, the new Edge comes with a built-in tracking prevention feature. Microsoft Edge is the best browser for shopping. Microsoft Edge is the only browser with built-in tools to help you save time and money when shopping online. The new Microsoft Edge will be pinned to the taskbar. If the current version of Microsoft Edge is already pinned, it will be replaced. The new Microsoft Edge will add a shortcut to the desktop. If the current version of Microsoft Edge already has a shortcut, it will be replaced. By default, most protocols that Microsoft Edge handles will be.
Puppeteer is a Node library that provides a high-level API to control Microsoft Edge (Chromium) using the DevTools Protocol. Puppeteer launches headless browsers by default. Headless browsers do not display a UI, so instead you must use the command line. You may also configure Puppeteer to run full (non-headless) Microsoft Edge as well.
By default, when you install Puppeteer, the installer downloads a recent version of Chromium, the open-source browser that Microsoft Edge is also built upon. If you have Microsoft Edge (Chromium) installed, you may use puppeteer-core. puppeteer-core is a lightweight version of Puppeteer that launches an existing browser installation, like Microsoft Edge (Chromium). To download Microsoft Edge (Chromium), navigate to Download Microsoft Edge Insider Channels.
Installing puppeteer-core
You may add puppeteer-core to your website or app with one of the following commands.
Launch Microsoft Edge with puppeteer-core
Note
puppeteer-core relies on Node v8.9.0 or later. The example below uses async/await which is only supported in Node v7.6.0 or later. Run node -v from the command-line to ensure you have a compatible version of Node.js.
puppeteer-core should be familiar to users of other browser-testing-frameworks like WebDriver. You create an instance of the browser, open a page, and then manipulate it with the Puppeteer API. In the following code sample, puppeteer-core launches Microsoft Edge (Chromium), navigates to https://www.microsoftedgeinsider.com, and saves a screenshot as example.png.
Copy the following code snippet and save it as example.js.
Microsoft Edge Full Setup
Change executablePath to point to your installation of Microsoft Edge (Chromium). For example, on macOS, the executablePath for Microsoft Edge Canary should be set to /Applications/Microsoft Edge Canary.app/. To find the executablePath, navigate to edge://version and copy the Executable path on that page or install the edge-paths package with one of the following commands.
The code sample below uses the edge-paths package to programmatically find the path to your installation of Microsoft Edge (Chromium) on your OS.
Finally, set executablePath: EDGE_PATH in example.js. Save your changes.
Note
Microsoft Edge (EdgeHTML) does not work with puppeteer-core. You must install the Microsoft Edge Insider channels to continue following this example.
Now, run example.js from the command line.
puppeteer-core launches Microsoft Edge, navigates to https://www.microsoftedgeinsider.com, and saves a screenshot of the webpage. Customize the screenshot size with page.setViewport().
This is just a simple example of the automation and testing scenarios enabled by Puppeteer and puppeteer-core. For more information about Puppeteer and how it works, navigate to Puppeteer.
