Today my default MSN news page in Edge Chromium opens with news from India instead of US. Everything from news to movies is India and Bollywood. Why? Going to Personalize, it shows I have selected 'US news' and News and Cars and Weather. Any idea why?

Are you located in India?your VPN/proxy using Indian IP?

Ben Geerdes What's the URL? https://www.msn.com/en-us?

I think he is referring to the news page that is on the default new tab page in Edge insider. you know, that small button at the bottom of the new tab page

HotCakeX It is indeed the edge://newtab pageI am not located in India, or using a VPN. I am actaully located in the Netherlands. But just trying to find out the URL, it brings me now to the correct MSN page again. Somehow it got it wrong this morning. Thanks

Well there isn't much settings in newtab page but you can try heading over to https://www.msn.com/en-us/settingsand see if everything is alright in there.if you change anything in there, try restarting your browser to look for any changes in newtab page.if that doesn't fix it, try clearing your browser data from the Edge insider settings:edge://settings/clearBrowserData(select the first 4 checkboxes from the top)then restart the browser and check newtab page again.hope that helps 🙂

HiBen Geerdes

  Problem is that the whole menu is in Thai. I can't believe that MS have not fixed all the language problems yet. Store is same. Just bought Amazon prime, but had to cancel it because everything in the MS store that I need to use Prime, is in Thai.
  
  My settings is:
  English (United States)
  English
  Offer to translate pages that aren't in a language I read
  
  Check spelling
  Enable spellcheck
  English (United States), English
  
  English (United States)
  
  English
  
  Customize spell check
  ....
  
  In other words none of this seems to work at all. So I just wonder, if MS can't make their browser work, why force it on my PC?
  
  Now I just want to get rid of it all together, and Amazon needs to offer another way to use their services.

    Make sure Window settings and languages are correct too, as well as language in your Microsoft account.
    if you want to see only English and you are from Thailand, then set everything to English.
    that will work.
