I'm honestly confused as to why this is an addon at all. It only seems to change your homepage and search to Bing (which Edge has on by default anyway). And Edge initially blocked it from doing so.

Extension safety

Risk impact

Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.

Microsoft Bing Homepage and Search Engine requires some sensitive permissions that could impact your browser and data security. Exercise caution before installing.
