The feature, which was shared on Reddit past Leo Varela, adds a choice in the context menu of Border to create a document in Give-and-take, PowerPoint, or Excel. The selection is in testing correct now in Edge Canary. Since it's part of a controlled rollout, not anybody on Edge Canary will exist able to endeavour the feature.

While the choice would make information technology quicker to open the online versions of Word, Excel, and PowerPoint, many people on Reddit expressed frustration nearly the feature. "Oh god no... more than crap in the context menu X_X," said d_stealthy.

The fear is that adding more than options like this would oversupply the context carte over time. Microsoft ran into a similar issue with the Windows ten context carte du jour, which was redesigned for Windows 11 with less ataxia.

Varela notes that if the feature did roll out, that there could be an option to toggle it off. Microsoft has done this with some features in the past. When Microsoft tested an pick to show visual search within the context carte of Edge, at that place was an option to show or hide it.
