I am using Edge dev for several months now and this is the first time it happened.When I started Edge this morning, the windows opens, but after 2 to 5 secondes edge crashes (the edge window closes). I don't have any warning or error message. I also could see that the new update was apply because one of the tab being loaded was the "welcome back" page after an update is done. Also in the lower left coner I can read something like "processing" before the crash. I download the lastest update with a different browser and apply it but it didn't fix the crash. I start Edge without extension with msedge.exe --disable-extensions and no more crash.But this is the weird part: when I restart edge the normal way, it didn't crash anymore even though I had all my extension opened. I am on windows 10 1903Edge : Version 80.0.320.3 (Official build) dev (64-bit)

same here, and then stop working again after a couple of times. must be an extension. Which one I will need to test by deactivating all and activating one by one . Update: Looks like it is AdBlock. I was offered to repair it and since then it works. Cross fingers.

Same here, crashes are intermittentcheck in edge:crashes and see if the crash reports are uploaded

07_19 I had the same issue and went back to beta channel. Good to know that it is related to AdBlock.

Thanks cjc2112 but favorite sync is already disable (not because of this but because the favorites I removed always came back when I reopen edge).

07_19 This is exactly same what I saw this morning. After a several crash and trying to launch, it worked without any error. Edit: I'm using AdGuard, it works well.

07_19 Its your favorites. Turn off your favorites sync and it will stop crashing. I had this problem a few weeks ago.

My experience must be different from other people who claim it to be an Adblock issue. I uninstalled Adblock and still had the issue. Turns out, I could open any other page in Edge Dev but I could not have it start up with Google as my startup screen. Doing so causes the crash for me. As soon as I changed it to the new tab option it started working again.

  I think each of us are experiencing different cause of the crash. for me this forum website and IMDB website would crash the browser..
