Edge Canary 95.0.1003.0 spawning multiple new Windows

With today's update to Edge Canary 95.0.1003.0 it is spawning multiple new Windows at start up and constantly thereafter after some time delay.

 

Effectively unusable.

 

This is even a worse problem than I thought. Now if I close Edge Canary and open Stable, Canary is automatically opening and spawning new windows.

    I just updated and I'm seeing this issue as well. It's very frustrating and makes the browser extremely difficult to use.

    How strange, it seems that the problem starts to happen when I open another Edge browser (like Dev or Stable) while the Canary version is also open... I'm not sure that's the problem, but it seems so

    So this is me (PeteGomersall) in Stable unfortunately in a different Profile. It was so bad I had to uninstall Edge Canary.

      Same here. I initially thought it was related to the latest Windows 11 update because it starting happening immediately after I installed that, but then that update locked up my machine and I had to rollback (to 22000 from 22449) and started seeing the same behavior -- so then I checked the forums and found others experiencing the same weird Canary behavior!
