In this video, we will guide you on How to Lock your Edge browser with a Password on Windows 11 or 10. Since there is no built-in option in Edge to lock the browser from unauthorized access, you can use a free extension named Browser Lock that will help you to protect your browser with a strong password. This Browser Lock addon is available for Edge. Once the browser is locked, no one can access opened tabs. One needs to enter the password you set to access the browser. Apart from that, when someone tries to open a new window, the extension will prompt them to enter the password to unlock Edge. If you prefer to browse the internet in InPrivate or incognito mode, it is possible to allow this extension to run in InPrivate mode to lock InPrivate windows. How to password-protect Edge browser? To password-protect, your Edge browser, first, navigate to the microsoftedge.microsoft.com page in the Edge browser to download and install the Browser Lock extension. Then, click the Get button to download it on your PC. The above action will download the Browser Lock extension of your PC. In the dialog box that appears, click the Add extension button. A new tab will open in the Edge browser. Enter the password and your email address. Finally, click on the Save button to store the settings.  You will see a pop-up message, “Registration has been completed.” Click OK. Note: Here, you can turn on “Deep Security,” which will lock your browser login for 3 minutes after 3 wrong login attempts. You can set the Dark Mode theme. When you forget your password at the main login, it changes your password using a recovery email. You can also set “Clear History” features in this Add-on to remove the browser history after 3 wrong login attempts. Now, close the Edge browser and open it again. Edge will prompt you for a password to browse a webpage. After entering the password, you can gain access to the Edge browser.  If you are visiting a webpage and want to lock them immediately, right-click on the webpage, access “Browser Lock | Lock Your Browser,” and click on the Lock Browser option.  The webpage is protected immediately, and to access it, you need to enter the password you have configured in the above step.
