Dan,

Isn't it the same as this ⬇ or in effect the same, same resultant behavior (??)

Cheers,

  Okay, I found it! No, that setting toggles between the news feed showing upon opening the tab, vs. you have to scroll down to see it. The other option eliminates the news feed altogether.

    Dan, I came up with this... On the left is Bing.com. On the right is New tab (page). Same Bing picture of the day, but, hamburger menus are not the same. The menu on the left has what eliminates completely, as you mentioned. But, you know what I'm saying... seems, actual, Bing per se does it not, New tab. And the Bing.com does not have the button that pops up the Feeds, either. Yes, I looked without the Feeds showing. Did you set New tab to open to Bing.com? For many of us New tab isn't opening to an assigned page... keeps going to New tab. Edge Support is working to resolve that bug.
    
    I was focused on the menus. That's why stuff is showing on the left; inadvertently, remained 'as is' at the moment of the Snip.
