Google home page not opening on start up of Edge
Hey, new to the forums, for some reason as of yesterday, when I start up Edge, I get a Microsoft home page even though I have Google.com as my home page and start up page. how do i stop this from hap...
dosi70 There are two workarounds you can try:
Workaround 1: Change your search-provider to Bing
In the Address Bar, go to edge://settings/searchEngines and then click the "..." at the end of the Bing option and choose "Make default". Close all Edge windows. Next time you open a new Edge window, your startup-page should be working again.
Workaround 2: Add the site(s) into the shortcut for Edge (applies to Windows users only)
Find a shortcut to the Edge browser (for example, on your desktop), then right-click it and choose "Properties". In the Target box, right at the end (after msedge.exe") leave a single space, and then type the web-address you want Edge to start with. Click OK, and use that shortcut now to launch Edge.
NOTE: if you want Edge to load more-than one site when it starts, just leave a single space between each website address, for example:
msedge.exe" https://www.google.co.uk https://www.bbc.co.uk
I found it it's it's an extension problem, I turned off adguard and it works fine, turn adguard on it goes back to the old Bing page. Reset only worked because it turned off adguard.
