What do you folks prefer? Google chrome or Windows explorer? Anyone heard which one is more secure?

I don't know which one is more secure, but I have been using Google Chrome for years with no problems.

I quit IE 10 or so years ago. I hated the way they were ramming bing down your throat. It was always glitchy and I kept hearing about security loopholes so I switched to Firefox. Firefox started getting glitchy so I started using chrome 4 or 5 years ago.
I use Chrome on my windows desktop and Samsung Galaxy. I use Safari on my iPad.

Why not DuckDuckGo? It seems to be getting better and has a lot of new features and they promise that they wont track you - unlike Google

I use Firefox.
Can't stand Edge but it plays nicer with some of the sports I watch online. It's the only time I use it.

IE can burn in hell for all I am concerned. It's extremely slow and constantly glitches. It also forces Bing down your throat and I do not like Bing.
I use either Google Chrome or Firefox when I have the choice.

I used Chrome for a couple years, and then it went out on me. So I changed to IE ........... then about 3 months ago it stated doing funny things.
Our local guru told me that Chrome seemed to heal itself and IE was toast. So I switched back.
As long as I can do what I need to do, I'll use whatever works.

I prefer chrome and really hate edge, but it seems to be turning itself on. Idk how. It opens itself. I don't like it b/c it is half screen and I don't know how to get full screen.

I use either Google Chrome or Firefox when I have the choice. ^this. although I have moved away from FF as I am using my phone to browse more now than I ever really did. using Chrome with a Google sign-in on my Android phone means all of my bookmarks and navigation history are shared across devices.
