There is a problem with the new official version of the Chromium Edge. The new tab suddenly became like this.
If I remember correctly, this is Microsoft MSN's promotion al-Greater China business. I've seen it in the old Edge, but now it's back in the new stable version of the Chromium Edge. I've used the BETA DEV CAN version in the Chromium Edge inside program in previous months, but none of them have.
Please ask MSFT's Community Commissioner for a reply, thank you. 🙂
HiMary-Sue
I could easily reproduce this as well on Edge canary Version 81.0.396.0 (Official build)
so if i use custom layout and then set the news and content language to this, and Only this:
(not sure what it is because I can't read it)
then i get that weird news layout.
All other countries that I tried are like this:
So I think Bing (Microsoft) is obligated (By China government) to show those links at the top to Chinese citizens.
- monstorixCopper ContributorMaybe that's right. OP might want a global version of MSN. But in mainland China, MSN and Bing will be forced to jump to the localized version. In the latest version, Edge's new tab page also displays Bing's Chinese ICP registering information.
- Yes, i think China told Bing to do that, as part of a contract or something
- monstorixCopper ContributorClick the "gear" buttom at the top right corner of the new tab page , select "Custom" , then you can see the option for hiding the news content in the panel.
点击新标签页右上角齿轮按钮,选择“自定义”,在自定义面板“内容”小节里面选择“内容关闭”,即可隐藏新闻流。I don't think the OP wants to hide the news, they just want to get the correct version of news, see my comment below
