is it possible to disable the "Restore pages" message?
Edge boots with a restore pages message constantly, which doesn't go away unless you click on it. There seem to be many options to disable it on chrome and chromium, but haven't found any that wo...
I experience this too and my Startup Boost is not enabled. It seems simple enough to not display that message if you have the browser configured to not restore pages. This is of course different than assigning a default start page.
I have this problem also, on multiple devices. On all devices:
- Speed boost is disabled
- Tabs are set to not sync
- On startup is set to open a new tab
Is there any additional place to tell the browser not to restore pages/tabs?
(So far this is the only thing in new Edge that is seriously tempting me to return to Chrome... slowly driving me crazy.)
- aharown are you using shutdown.exe? I find that using this with an open Edge browser (I use -L and -F) causes the message. If you can close the browser before shutdown, the message does not seem to appear.
I have not experimented with taskkill, but that seems to be a way to close a program from the command line.- I'm not using shut down.exe. Just regular shutdowns from the start menu. But this really shouldn't matter. If Edge can't be closed in a normal Windows way without causing this irrelevant pop up, it's a bug and ought to be fixed.
Meanwhile if there's a registry hack or something that will make it go away I'd be happy to know.
