    After experimenting with each and every file in the User Data folder, I found the solution.
    Here's how-
    1. Close the edge
    2. Delete this file
    "C:\Users\%username%\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Edge SxS\User Data\Default\Preferences"

    You can find the 'Preferences' file in "C:\Users\%username%\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Edge SxS\User Data\Default\"
    And then delete it
    3. Start the edge, only some of your settings along with the sign in will only be deleted 😄
    4. Be happy

NXTwoThou Same here on Win 11 22624.1680

Reverted back to standard edge in hopes it'll get resolved someday

    Here's a quicky recording of how long it stays running along with seeing some of the report IDs in case anyone at MS actually looks at these things.  I kept trying to go to About to see the version number but couldn't get it to stay open that long.
