My Microsoft Edge browser keeps freezing up. I have tried all the suggested solutions with no success. I like the design and functionality offered by Edge, but will change to Firefox until I get a notice that Microsoft has fixed the problem with Edge freeze ups.

    edge keeps copping out, freezing, in the midst of writing replies in gmail. Yet I have run the update: clearly it does not get to the root of the problem: Edge too edgy! Tried to uninstall, but at lease useing different browser to minimize inconvenience.

    Done it all...followed all suggestions, and done it multiple times on my desktop...still freezes. But, you are correct Jeff, in that I don't have any problem using Edge on my laptop, or my wife's desktop, so must be some deeply ingrained conflict in my desktop's subsystems. Just don't understand why Google Chrome and Firefox work so well. Guess if I want to use Edge I'll just have to buy a new computer.

    Serious, just try an new clean profile on same machine...
    If it works, back up your stuff and delete your profile.
