San Francisco, Aug 29: Microsoft has said that it will be removing some of the features from its web browser Edge in the latest update. The tech giant will remove five features with the launch of Edge version 117 (v117), which is currently in beta.

It will remove the following features -- Math Solver, Picture Dictionary, Citations, Grammar Tools, and Kids Mode. Microsoft explained that the features would be removed in order to "improve end-user experience" and "simplify" the overflow menus. boAt Smart Ring Launched in India; Checkout Price, Features, Availability and More.

"To improve end-user experience and simplify the More tools menu, the following features are being deprecated: Math Solver, Picture Dictionary, Citations, Grammar Tools, and Kids Mode," Microsoft said in a beta channel release note.

The deprecation of a feature means that Microsoft will no longer develop it, so users should not expect any upgrades. However, a deprecated feature may still be available before Microsoft permanently removes it. Microsoft Launcher Update: Tech Gaint Updates Launcher Application for Android To Get ChatGPT-Supported Bing Chat Integration.
