High CPU Usage caused by MSN NTP Service Worker.

Edge Version 88.0.705.50 (Official build) (64-bit)

Windows 10

 

This happens even when I don't have a blank 'new tab' open.

 

I have reported the issue via the 'Send Feedback' and included a Diagnostic Log.

    BaSsGaz I'm on Mac OS and experiencing the same thing. CPU is ramped and it's making Edge pretty un-useable today.

     

    Submitted a report and crossing my fingers this gets fixed...

     

    edit: tried the above idea of disabling the preload new tab experience....did nothing, the service is still going nuts at times

  • Hi,
    try turning this off
    "Preload the new tab page for a faster experience"
    in
    edge://settings/newTabPage
