Firefox als Linux-Alternative zu Microsoft Edge (Legacy Collections, IE mode)
Aktualisiert am
Unser Fazit
Firefox is a solid replacement for Microsoft Edge (Legacy Collections, IE mode) for most users, especially those prioritizing privacy, open source software, and cross-platform use. While Firefox lacks IE mode and built-in support for outdated internal sites relying on legacy ActiveX or old document modes, it handles modern web standards well. It supports collections via extensions and offers strong customization. It’s ideal for users who don’t depend on Windows-specific enterprise intranet features but want a secure, private, and actively maintained browser on Linux.

Ihre Microsoft Edge (Legacy Collections, IE mode)-Dateien öffnen
Firefox does not directly open Microsoft Edge Collections files, as the format is proprietary and not exposed for import. Users must manually export bookmarks or links from Edge before switching. Passwords and history cannot be directly migrated to Firefox from Edge on Linux. Third-party tools or browser sync via Microsoft account may help extract some data, but full fidelity is not guaranteed.
Von Microsoft Edge (Legacy Collections, IE mode) zu Firefox wechseln – Schritt für Schritt
- Export bookmarks from Microsoft Edge as an HTML file
- Install Firefox on Linux via your distribution’s package manager or Flathub
- Import the HTML bookmark file into Firefox under Library > Bookmarks > Import
- Install extensions like 'Collections' or 'Simple Tab Groups' for content organization
- Set up Firefox Sync to keep data across devices
- Test access to legacy sites; use a Windows VM or container if IE mode is required
