Why is Edge so slow to open?
I have been using chromium-based Edge for a long time now, and believe it is a vast improvement on classic Edge, but as more and more features are added, I am very concerned at how "clunky" it is get...

Initially I was fine using Edge, but on a couple of machines at my work place it has just got slower and slower. It is slow to launch, very slow to open the first page, then it tends to cause a delay whilst closing. I have tried a system file check, plus an Edge repair, which did initially help but then the problem came back. I have tried most of the fixes posted on the web, but no real luck.
I installed Chrome today as an experiment and it was lightning fast in comparison, no delays at all.
