Edge 145 is out with improved password manager, smarter Read Aloud, and a lot more

Microsoft Edge version 145 is now available to everyone in the Stable release channel. The latest feature update delivers a big changelog of new features and improvements. While most of them are tailored to business customers and IT admins (such as the new Enterprise Preview), regular users will find some good stuff there as well.

Edge 145 has been released under build number 145.0.3800.58. In fact, Microsoft started rolling it out earlier this week. However, as it usually goes, the rollout is gradual, and Microsoft only now published the changelog.

With Edge version 145, Microsoft updated the built-in password manager to better detect domain names. It can now group related domains together, thanks to the new affiliation service. This will make sure the browser suggests the right credentials when visiting related domains, say account.microsoft.com and office.microsoft.com. This should make the sign-in experience more seamless. Just keep in mind that the feature is rolling out gradually.

Speaking of autofill, Microsoft Edge can now prompt you to save your address when filling out a form so that you can quickly paste it next time you need to enter your address details.

In addition to better credential and address handling, Microsoft Edge is now better at working with progressive web apps or PWAs. The browser can now decide whether it should open the installed progressive web app or launch a new browser tab.

There is also a refreshed profile flyout that lets you better distinguish personal accounts from work accounts, built-in protection from sideloaded malicious extensions, and performance improvements for Read Aloud in PDFs. Microsoft says the latter now takes less time to start, and the feature is overall more reliable. For now, Read Aloud improvements only apply to the PDF viewer.

Finally, Microsoft resolved two security vulnerabilities. One is coming from Google Chrome, and it is marked as a high-severity priviledge escalation vulnerability under CVE-2026-26119. Also, there is a Microsoft Edge-specific security fix for CVE-2026-0102, a vulnerability that could trigger data autofill and potentially disclose sensitive data.

If you are still on Edge 144, you can update your browser by heading to edge://settings/help. Full release notes are available here.
