Thanks to CTOnews.com netizen Coje_He for the clue delivery! CTOnews.com, September 19 (Xinhua)-- Google Chrome may get a sidebar search function similar to Microsoft Edge. This will allow the user to highlight any text in the page to find more information about it on the network without opening a new tag. The search results are displayed in the pane on the right side of the current page, showing all related links, images, definitions, and videos.

Now, it seems that Google Chrome will also get another Microsoft Edge feature, which is a security enhancement.

Microsoft Edge browser actually provides the "log in with device password" setting. CTOnews.com learned that when a user automatically populates a password in a form, this adds a new security layer that prompts the user for device credentials before automatically filling in the password. In essence, device credentials act as a master password that automatically populates credentials on any website that users browse through Edge. However, this is not the default setting for Microsoft Edge and needs to be enabled by users.

Leopeva64 found that Google Chrome Canary already offers similar features.

Google Chrome has made some improvements to the implementation on Edge by letting the Windows dialog box accurately tell users that sites that are automatically populating access are being granted.

This feature is more secure and optional, which means that users can save the browser as the default configuration if they do not want to be disturbed every time they are prompted for a password automatically.
