How to enable the inspect element tool in the Microsoft Edge browser

The inspect element tool can be accessed in the right click menu for Chrome or Internet Explorer, but is disabled by default for Microsoft Edge and must be manually enabled.

Enabling inspect element can be done in two ways:
 
1. Once Microsoft Edge is open, press the F12 key which opens developer tools and you
will be prompted to keep inspect element in the context menu.
 
2. With Microsoft Edge open, navigate to about:flags
  
 
You will be taken to the Developer Settings page, check the first box and inspect element will
now be available in the right click menu.
