    Disable session resume
    Edge Settings → System → Disable “Resume tabs on exit”.
    Clear Startup Page
    Edge Settings → On Startup → Select “Open New Tab”.
    Manage Extensions
    Type edge://extensions/ → Disable non-essential extensions → Restart the browser.
    2. Troubleshooting
    New user account test
    Create a new local account → Test Edge after switching → If normal, the original account needs to be reset.
    Scan for malware with Windows Security Full Disk Scan → Eliminate virus interference.
