Homepage tab not loading 128.0.2739.42
- Aug 27, 2024
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"

So me and my Team are attacking this issue now. As of this second we have identified that renaming the Edge key in the registry helps the page resolve. We are still digging to see the exact key or setting that could be affecting this in our env.
Location of key is Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Edge
If you rename the edge key to edge1 it appears to solve the issue but we are looking to identify the root cause and see exactly which policy or setting is causing this.
Please confirm if this works for others.

StartupboostEnabled> With this key set to 1 the site is now loading for us.
Please confirm. MSFT usually recommends setting this key to 0 which disables it but, in our situation, setting it to 1 fixes the SharePoint site loading for us. We will monitor performance to see if performanceboostenabled causes any issues or if we need to.
We have reported this finding to MSFT as well.- Josh-GAug 26, 2024Copper Contributor
malloy9932150 the bug looks associated with a recent change that Edge and Google Chrome share based on what I see. Here is what lead me to that conclusion.
After my Edge browser updated to 128.0.2739.42, I have a problem where a tab's content gets replaced with BREAKPOINT_STATUS.
I'm a software developer making a web application and have been trying to find any connection between my code and the Edge browser bug. It wasn't a problem until the upgrade to 128.0.2739.42 and the same site works in Firefox 129.0.2 (64-bit), Chrome 127.0.6533.122. Google Chrome started showing a similar error message after updating Google Chrome to Version 128.0.6613.85 (Official Build) (64-bit).One of my crashes had the following information in case you connect my comments.

If both Microsoft Edge and Google Chrome incorporated changes to the V8 JavaScript engine in the last week or 2, changes to the V8 JavaScript engine are what I would suspect to cause these bugs to both Edge 128.0.2739.42 and Google Chrome 128.0.6613.85 (Official Build) (64-bit).- ThiloLangbeinAug 27, 2024Brass ContributorSetting StartupboostEnabled to 1 seems to solve the problem.

malloy9932150 all that key does is keep Edge loaded in RAM so when you close and re-open the browser it's not really "closed", so you are just masking the issue

Correct this will need to be fixed by MSFT PG. But this is where they should be focusing their efforts as I can confirm on several devices this key is causing issues.
Also I have heard back from MSFT and their recommendation is to roll back to 127 presently. Not worth the squeeze imo.
It also looks like if the edge process is already running this should work as well. We can only reproduce the issue is no edge process is running and its the first time launching.
Example: Launching edge>Close edge>Reopen edge works as the process is running in the background after the first launch.
