New Update Microsoft Edge 150 Adds Google Account Sign-In on Windows and macOS

[lokamoka820]

Microsoft has added support for signing into Edge with a Google account in version 150 on Windows and macOS, according to the browser's stable release notes released on July 2, 2026. Users are now able to sign in with a Google account alongside their Microsoft account.

This feature is being gradually rolled out to all Edge users on both platforms. System administrators can manage its availability using the new NonMicrosoftAccountSignInEnabled policy.

This change marks a reversal of Microsoft's stance in 2020, when the company said it had no plans to integrate Google services into Edge by default. The addition was first announced in June through the Microsoft 365 Roadmap.

It's interesting to see Microsoft taking a more flexible approach by offering users another sign-in option. Back in 2020, the idea of signing into Edge with a Google account wasn't on the table, whereas now users have more flexibility in choosing how they sign in. Giving people more choice is generally a positive step, especially for those who already rely on Google's ecosystem.
