Hello,
Edge has been working very well for a long time. However, I found recently that when you open a new tab, the focus is not on the webpage but still on the address bar.
(Note that InPrivate window does not have this issue.)
Version 81.0.416.72 (Official build) (64-bit)
Version 84.0.522.20 (Official build) beta (64-bit) (Edited on 6/16/2020)

@Deleted Thanks for the reply.
1. I'm using the stable build (I think) as I don't see any badge (like `beta`) on the Edge icon.
(Version 81.0.416.72)
2. I'd like to but I'm not sure where I should submit the feedback. That's why I posted it here :grinning_face_with_sweat:.

@TrueGame Thanks for your quick reply!
I got this problem on a fresh new installation, so no flags is set yet(just checked that all omnibox-related flags are set default).
Still no luck after re-installing them both.

I think this is a change which has come from upstream Chromium because the same behaviour is also seen in the Chromium browser (Developer Build) version 86.0.4189.0 and in Google Chrome Stable Channel also.

@Deleted The issue can only be replicated with Search on new tabs uses search box or address bar set to Address bar. You may or may not need a custom search engine set as default (I have not yet tested).

SolutionHey folks, I'm a dev from the Edge Address Bar team. I wanted to give a hearty Thank You for the invaluable information. Because of that we were able to deploy the fix yesterday. Since this was a server-side change, this fix should be live now.
Thanks again!
