Microsoft Edge UI Now 40% Faster on Average, Key UI Elements Load Up to 4x Quicker

Microsoft has updated its Edge browser, achieving a First Contentful Paint (FCP) of under 300 milliseconds by using its WebUI 2.0 architecture instead of the traditional React framework, resulting in a 40% average reduction in load times for thirteen core features. The updated settings UI shows a fourfold improvement in performance compared to the previous version. This release builds on enhancements from May 2024, which improved launch times by 42-76%, and an optimization effort in February 2025 that targeted fourteen interface subsystems. Internal tests confirm the settings panel now consistently renders in under 300 ms. Microsoft plans to extend these performance improvements to Print Preview and Extensions management throughout 2025.

This Windows app is like File Explorer on steroids

File Explorer has been criticized for its sluggish performance and cumbersome interface, leading some users to explore alternatives. File Pilot has emerged as a new file management application that offers remarkable speed, opening folders almost instantaneously and providing a seamless browsing experience. It features a slider-based system for smooth transitions between viewing modes and includes productivity enhancements such as tabbed browsing, split-screen view, and an inspector mode for previewing folder contents. The app also boasts a fast search capability and extensive customization options, allowing users to remap shortcuts, adjust fonts, and toggle animations. However, File Pilot currently lacks support for network browsing and cannot be set as the default file manager without registry modifications, although developers are working on improvements.
