Well Kelley, I might have to take a look at the options to make that change, that is if I can keep Edge from beeping at me. However, maybe some how the change was made, because as I said before, it appears anyway that my Cortana search takes me to IE, at least that's the way it appeared to be

There is actually a setting deep in Edge's options that controls what happens when you search with Cortana in the Anniversary Update. If you open Edge, and find the More button and then choose settings, followed by View Advanced Settings you can find this. At that point it is faster to shift+tab

Hi Rick and all, Just a minor correction to my post below, namely, when I upgraded my Windows 7 Ultimate machine to Windows 10, it became Windows 10 Pro, not Ultimate. In fact, Windows 10 Enterprise is the version above Windows 10 Pro, but this is a unique version for enterprise business
