Open in Chrome™ Browser: Edge Add-on for Easy Browsing

"Open in Chrome™ Browser" is an Edge add-on that facilitates easy transition from Edge to Chrome. By allowing users to open the current tab, links, or even all tabs in Chrome right from the Edge browser itself, it enhances productivity and browsing convenience. It provides an array of features like sending the page or specific links to Chrome, closing the source tab in Edge, and even directing top-level navigation to open in Chrome. It requires the installation of a minimal native client.

Funciona a medias, cuando uso "Force Open in Chrome" la opción de no cerrar la pestaña no funciona. En la 1ra pestaña cuando ingreso la URL, ejemplo "youtube.com", se cierra el Edge y nunca inicia el Chrome, para que funcione bien debo tener otra pestaña abierta.
