Since working on the Edge proves to be such a welcoming and worth remembering experience, many users like to see it in full screen. However, people were amazed to see that a simple feature to access Microsoft Edge on full screen mode is missing. Microsoft’s aim is to compete with the gigantic Chrome, and far as the results are concerned, the Edge is doing quite a formidable job in doing so but leaving such a basic feature is what wonders people. 

The full screen is very crucial to some users who work long hours on their screen. It’s totally a matter of personal preference, but not having such a simple feature might affect the over popularity of the Edge. Comparing to the Chrome, all it takes is to press the F11 key and the user is thrown into the full-screen mode. On the Edge however, there is no shortcut key.
