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.
Troubleshooting browser crashes or performance issues on Windows 10

I just did a completely new install of Windows 10. Narrowed problem down to 2 things: 1. installation of Skype or 2. installation of optional updates. Don't know which one, since I installed both at same time, but it duplicated the problem. New install eliminated problem by not installing either.
I JUST did a Repair with the browser. I am not liking this.
That basically tells Microsoft your fate is in their hands. Meaning Microsoft can take all the time in the world because they know you’re not going anywhere.
I switched to Firefox while I was struggling, and also had Google Chrome as a backup choice. As of now, I no longer see issues on Edge though. My current setup is having Edge open in a blank page and having hardware acceleration turned off. I made those changes one of the days the program opened successfully.
Always freezes up on me when I open it. Its very frustrating which makes me not want to use it as firefox won't let me open certain websites that I guess banks and some other websites don't use anymore. So I need microsoft edge to work. Don't want google after I heard they are very bad with security, so I don't know what to do.
I solved the problem by removing all the Edge attachments (including the MS attachments)
Can you elaborate on your solution? What do you mean by Edge attachments? Thanks.
