Does the bookmarklet work in Windows Edge?  I use this browser, as well as Chrome, in all my PCs.  The Chrome favorites bar takes the bookmarklet fine, but not Edge, so whenever I add an online recipe, I have to make sure I'm in Chrome.  Your instructions to drag and drop for the old Internet Explorer doesn't work for Edge, and the alternate recommendation to right click the bookmarklet and "Add to Favorites" no longer applies in Edge.

Am I missing something?

My understanding is that Edge does not support javascript in bookmarklets so you are not able to drag and drop the bookmarklet in the way you can for Chrome. According to a post on a Microsoft support forum, "Editing of Favorites or Bookmarks or links is now available on version Microsoft Edge 41.16299.371.0...But still dragging of a bookmarklet is not supported."

There are some workarounds - if you Google "add a bookmarklet on Edge" there are suggestions - but none are very simple so for now I would suggest you stick to using Chrome.

So glad to have seen this post and reply. I could not understand why I could not drag and drop the bookmarklet. I do also have CHROME browser installed , so will go that way.
