Reported to Smiley, twice.
Drew1903 Please ignore "and that you have Canary 75.0.139.0 set up identically". It should read "and that you have Canary builds set up identically". Canary is now on what, about 75.0.141.0?
The point, though, is that the problem you are encountering is probably not build-related. Weekly Dev releases "are the best representation of our improvements in the past week" according to Microsoft, so what works in Canary builds during the week should also work in the Dev build. That suggests to me that the problem you are encountering is specific to your setup somehow. Feedback is designed to identify issues to be resolved in future builds, while Microsoft Edge Support is designed to identify and resolve specific issues users are encountering.

Tom,
I have reached out to MS Edge Support. I'll let you know what comes of that if, you like (?). Niether Canary nor Dev have been opening on Startup the specific page to which they are set. Just checked both, again, before writing this.
Cheers,
Drew

I've not had the trouble on any of my computers. Nichol also has the issue, and that eliminates a lot of variables.
A possible variable that comes to mind, if you want to check it out: The way that I set Startup pages is to set the startup tabs up the way I want them (I use a different setup on each of the computers) and then I click on the "Use all open tabs" button. I don't use the "Add a new page" button and then add the page URL. I wonder if that would make a difference. If so, that would help MES isolate the issue for replication.
It is an interesting issue, the kind of anomaly that drives support people crazy.

I have had more discussion with Edge Tech. They had asked me to see what behavior there would be in an Added Profile. Since, I, already, have 2 acc'ts, mostly using one in Canary & the other in Dev, the excercise became unnecessary. I told that mine isn't an isolated case. He then said, he knew that & that, indeed, one of his co-workers has the same issue. Anyway, they are lloking into this deeply in an effort to resolve it. Will keep y'all updated.

@tomscharbach @NicolSD
OMG! Now, both Dev & Canary are opening as assigned or correctly, repeatedly. That poor tech is going to think I'm on bad acid 🤪😵🥴 What is yours doing, Nicol? (now) Maybe, they fixed it. 🤷🏻♂️

Drew1903 I've tried "Open a specific page or pages" and it doesn't work for me. I hadn't noticed before because my default is "Continue where you left off" and that works fine.

Well, isn't that interesting, that it is not unique to myself. Maybe, if it was reported to Mr. Smiley 🙂 & https://microsoftedgesupport.microsoft.com/hc/en-us/requests/new? by more than, myself that would be good & helpful. Might be a bug. Could, would more of you, also, check this, please so we know if it's wide-spread (a bug) or isolated incidents.
Cheers,
Drew
