Edge stopped working after latest Dev update
julianonunes Weird: someone else just posted a very similar issue in another thread, but based on Edge Dev 78.
This article talks about some sandboxing restrictions that started in 78 & some incompatibilities:

Here's a longer thread with similar and a few other solutions: https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/Discussions/This-page-is-having-problems/m-p/816671
Would any of these fix your bug?
I'd definitely submit a Smiley, too: the more reports (and debug data) they can get, the better. If there is an incompatibility, there should be a far more graceful failure. This bug fails in a pretty destructive and unhelpful way.
I had this happen to me too today. Edge was crashing, so I tried over and over to open it, but it kept crashing. Then it opened itself without my input and it booted up with 6 other windows( I'm assuming because i clicked on the icon 6 times or so), so I closed the new windows before it crashed again. It happened in canary, so I tried dev and beta and both those crashed too. I have the settings set to 'continue where you left off', and all the tabs appeared and started to load before it crashed. Even Spartan edge crashed, which confused me because its stable, and tabs weren't able to start to load before it crashed.. They browsers were only up for one or two seconds or less before they crashed. I thought it was an issue from my school, so I turned off the Wi-Fi and they loaded with that screen. Not the "your not connected' page, the "this page is having problems' page. Firefox wasn't affected. Another interesting part of this event is that OneDrive was down, so it might have been a Microsoft wide failure.
The browsers eventually fixed themselves(or were fixed) and loaded fine.
