I confirm, this is related to this new library.
I made a test on my computer by disabling the new SmartScreen library and it fix the issue.

Windows Registry Settings
Path (Mandatory): HKLM\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Edge
Value Name: NewSmartScreenLibraryEnabled
Value Type: REG_DWORD
Value 0x00000000

I hope Microsoft will fix it soon.

Hi Yannick1285

Thank you for your confirmation, but the best way to reach Edge engineers is ( Alt+Shift+I ) + diagnostic data.

I also think that this will be fixed!

Of course you are right - >Disabling SmartScreen is not the solution, in MTC we can help each other , but the Edge team - must have diagnostic data to develop fixes for all users!

Hello all, we are facing the same issue since last week as anyone opened a Microsoft case ?
Disabling SmartScreen is last resort for us.
