It does work, but not on the new Edge using Bing as a search engine. Or at least I haven't figured out how to get it to work. Works excellent in Edge using Google.

Thank You, super simple add-on that lets me choose what web safe color codes to use for my slight color blindness of previously visited links. I used #ff00FF custom color.
