A recent leak of Build 10123 Windows 10 - the current version available for Windows 10074 Insider program - shows new features that are available for the new Web browser, Microsoft Edge, who will accompany the future operation of the system US firm.
Since Edge Microsoft will not provide support to extensions at its launch, the new features of Edge revealed in the latest version of Windows 10 will soon offer private browsing.

There are three new features that have been presented in the screenshots published by the Chinese site ITHome. The leak details the ability to start a private browsing session, an auto-complete feature for user names and passwords and a new view of the home screen, which can display the most visited sites, or the default page of a new tab.
Private browsing
Private Browsing is a feature that is available on most competing Web browsers, including Chrome and Firefox. With a named InPrivate browsing feature, Edge would be able to stop the storage of cookies, passwords and web history.
This feature is useful if you quickly need to use a public computer or laptop from a friend. With InPrivate Browsing enabled, you should be able to navigate your email account, or pay your electricity bill and book your dinner without your passwords and user names are stored, or your history Navigation is registered.
Autofill
Autofill is a useful feature if you browse to a personal computer. It allows the browser to save your user name, password and personal information. If you regularly connect to your Outlook.com account, autofill could automatically fill in your user name and password, so you do not have to remind you of this information, or enter them manually.
However, the browser extensions that manage passwords, like 1Password and LastPass, go much further. They can store multiple user names and passwords for the same site, and automatically generate complex passwords.
Top Sites
This is another feature that is supported on rival browsers. The view "Top Sites" allows users to quickly see the sites they frequently visit when they launch the browser for the first time.
Interestingly, the feature is called "top suggéré websites and content" (top sites and suggested content). Although we do not yet know what it really means, perhaps that Microsoft intends to introduce new websites and new content based on your browsing history by Cortana, the virtual assistant which will ship with Windows 10.
