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.

    I had previously experienced this issue with Edge in Win 10. I had hoped with Win 11 Microsoft had resolved the issue. Apparently not. In addition when I launch Edge I get 2 sets of start up pages. Whatever I select for a start up tab opens 2 tabs when I launch Edge. Until Microsoft sorts out Edge I am going to be using Chrome. It is very annoying.

    Having to use such a work around is unacceptable. I shall simply be using Chrome until Edge is fixed.

    Thank you, that's not a long term solution but, better than having to end task and start over. I really don't want to change browsers again, they all seem to have their own issues.

    The problem for me is that when Edge freezes, oftentimes, my usb mouse and usb keyboard are nonresponsive, so i can't open Task Manager. Then i have to do a hot shutdown by holding the power button until the pc shuts down. Then i restart the pc. Since it kept freezing, i switched over to Firefox for the time being until MS gets around to fixing it.
