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.

- AnthonyIron ContributorI've had this happen now and again in the past with Chrome Canary. It's a bug that'll most likely be resolved by Edge Canary in the next update or update after that. Remember with Canary builds there's going to be bugs at times not found in Dev, Beta, or Stable versions.

Yes you are right there may be many bugs
Many of us use canary just to test new features and also report these bugs before they get to another channel.
Everyone here is just trying to help the edge team by reporting this bug
- cjahn50Iron ContributorI'm on Version 95.0.1004.0 (Official build) canary (64-bit) and a new window just randomly appears. Sometimes 2. Really bizarre behavior.
- Madrid1989Copper ContributorSame to me. Even after update to
Version 95.0.1004.0 (Offizielles Build) canary (64-Bit)
NB: Edge starts self on system startup, so smth external runs it periodically? - FacilisDKBrass ContributorI am experiencing the exact same issue. It seems to randomly launch 3 - 7 new windows at a time.

Hey all!
The team is working on getting this sorted. The most recent version of Canary does still have this happening, but the team has all the info they need at the moment. If there are any updates or we need more info, I'll bump here! Thanks for your patience, we know this one is rough to work around.

the same with me here
I have edge stable pwa windows open and all of a sudden edge canary starts to open several windows - rshupakIron ContributorThe bug remains in today's Version 95.0.1004.0 (Official build) canary (64-bit) release.
- rshupakIron ContributorSame here on 21H1. Do not see on an Arm Surface Pro X also running 21H1. Typically it opens batches of three new windows. triggered by some use of browser. if I leave PC alone, new windows not opened, at least not that I've noticed.
