Microsoft Translator extension for Edge now available to Windows Insiders

Windows Insiders can now translate foreign language web pages for 50+ languages in the Microsoft Edge browser by downloading the brand new Microsoft Translator Edge extension.

Once installed, the translation icon will appear in the address bar when visiting a foreign-language webpage in Microsoft Edge. You can then click on the icon to instantly translate the webpage to your current Windows language. The extension works with all of the languages supported by Microsoft Translator.

If you are already a Windows Insider, you can add the extension to Edge by following the steps shown below or in the video above.

If you are not currently a Windows Insider, don’t worry. When fully released to mainstream builds of Windows 10, the Microsoft Translator extension will be available to the public via the Windows Store. Learn more about the Windows 10 Insider program here.
