Edge Browser helps the users save the addresses in the browser so that they do not have to enter them repeatedly while in use. You need to navigate to the Profile through the settings and open the Personal info section. Further, click on the Add Basic Info section, enter the address, and save it for future use.
If you’re registering for an account or filling out the registration form, then it asks for your basic details. However, if you’re filling out an official form that requests all your details like location, phone number, email, etc., then it’s pretty tedious.
Hence, Microsoft Edge offers a feature to autofill the form with all the address details. All you need is to store the address details in the Edge Browser. The browser will automatically populate the address details wherever necessary.
If you’ve more than one address saved in the browser, then you also have the option to choose either of the addresses from the list.
