edge browser tab privacy statement
Good day all,
My PC updated to Windows 10 2004 a few days ago and since then I have this annoying popup/overlay whenever I open a new tab, I tried everything but it just keep coming back. If you click accept then the overlay goes away, and you have access to the shortcut icons, and all the consecutive tab openings is clear without the overlay, but when browser is closed and re-opened the overlay is back. Also if you click on manage preferences on this overlay screen and remove or add any of the partners, it does not store it, next time on opening edge, they are all ticked again.
Hi,
I don't know if you've tried this already, but if you haven't, go to:
edge://settings/clearBrowsingDataOnClose
and make sure none of them are turned on.
also go here:
edge://settings/content/cookies
and make sure the list for "Block" and "Clear on Exit" is empty.
if they didn't fix it, try resetting Edge settings from here:
edge://settings/resetyou can also try temporarily disable all your extensions, in case one of them is causing conflict:
edge://extensions/

I get this every time I open a new tab. Some privacy statement for Germany. Non of the prior listed fixes worked.

Have you configured your Edge browser to clear cookies at exit?
Are you using any extensions that might clear cookies or modify them in any way?
Are you using any flags that might change cookies behavior? edge://flags/
