Homepage tab not loading 128.0.2739.42
The latest stable version of Edge seems to have broken the new tab homepage for us. The tab opens but just says "loading" and never completes. Opening a new tab resolves the issue. This is only happe...

Thanks everyone for the help on this one! The team has a fix, which is planned to be released with the next Stable 128 update, later this week.
As a temporary workaround, you should be able to use the following command line argument:
"C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft\Edge\Application\msedge.exe" --disable-features="msIrm, msIrmv2, msEndpointDlp"

That's good.
I think it's interesting though that - at least in MY testing - it seems to be ALL web-pages with the first launch - not just HomePage.
Just HomePage is the first page most people see this with.
Try
* Closing All Edge Windows
* Making a shortcut or Link to https://google.com on your desktop, or in Teams/Outlook/etc
* Clicking that Shortcut
For me, that is opening Edge WITHOUT my HomePage, on the correct URL for what I clicked, but loading indefinitely.
Refreshing fixes the page for me though, until I close Edge fully again.

- shaaricAug 26, 2024Copper Contributorthis is the same behavior we are experiencing, most of our users that had issues were opening edge with a url link/shortcut vs. noticing on their homepage (largely b/c where they care about their homepage, edge hasn't yet updated) - but it does behave the same for the home page (gpo set). Always good to know others are experiencing the same pattern of behavior.

It doesn't seem like Edge actually crashes, just that the webpage fails to ever load.
