#Enable or Disable Offer to Translate Pages in Microsoft Edge Chromium

By default, Microsoft Edge offers translating web pages that are not in your default language of the browser. If you are not happy to see such prompts every time you visit a page in a foreign language, you may want to disable them. For example, you may prefer alternative translators to Bing, which is enabled by default in Edge.

Microsoft Edge is now a Chromium-based browser with a number of exclusive features like Read Aloud and services tied to Microsoft instead of Google. The browser has already received a few updates, with support for ARM64 devices in Edge Stable 80. Also, Microsoft Edge is still supporting a number of aging Windows versions, including Windows 7, which has recently reached its end of support. Check out Windows Versions Supported by Microsoft Edge Chromium and Edge Chromium latest roadmap. Finally, interested users can download MSI installers for deployment and customization.

For pre-release versions, Microsoft is currently using three channels to deliver updates to Edge Insiders. The Canary channel receives updates daily (except Saturday and Sunday), the Dev channel is getting updates weekly, and the Beta channel is updated every 6 weeks. Microsoft is going to support Edge Chromium on Windows 7, 8.1 and 10, alongside macOS, Linux (coming in the future) and mobile apps on iOS and Android. Windows 7 users will receive updates until July 15, 2021.

By default, Microsoft Edge will display in the same language as your system. For websites composed in other languages, it will display a translation prompt. It is possible to disable those prompts without a harm – you will still be able to right click on a page to translate it.

1. Open Microsoft Edge.
2. Click on the Settings button (Alt F) and select Settings from the menu.
