"Resolving Host" is making the new Microsoft Edge unusable.

I've been having the same issue with Chrome and Edge.  If you are running Malwarebytes there is a setting that works for me.  Open Malwarebytes click on the settings (gear icon) - you'll be on general settings

• under Windows Explorer Settings - "Add Malwarebytes option to windows explore" toggle the slider to off then restart your computer.  Hope this helps.

Just tried this and it solved the problem immediately..............................................Hope it Lasts !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Try turning off Delivery Optimization.

I was having the same issues with the chromium browsers resolving.

When I disabled Delivery Optimization, My Chromium browsers - Edge & Chrome, came back to life.

Turned delivery optimization back on - rebooted and the resolving issue came back.

Turned it back off - rebooted - Browsers run great.

Worth a try - Hope it works for you

Personally I think both the Corona Virus and Chromium's 'Resolving Host' issues are related..... all of your page requests are being sent to a government supercomputer tracking your every electronic move, as they use the virus to hasten the one-government world order.  

How's that for a conspiracy theory?

Or... It could just be that it's just Chromium's fault.   You choose.

I have concluded that Windows Defender Smart Screen and Malwarebytes Web Protection are in conflict.  When I chose Malwarebytes (all functions) and disabled the Windows Defender Smart Screen in Edge, all problems went away.  Seems logical because both were trying to do the same thing.  I don't think I am exposed to more risk.  Thanks to all for the many clues that led me to this solution.  I hope it works for more folks.  I got more done tonight than in the last 3 days.

Hi my name is Ross, I'm an independent advisor. I'd be happy to help with your issue.

Could you try the same pages using Firefox (with is non chromium) and let us know the results. This will help rule out anything system based and check the issue is with Edge.

I'm copying my Google Chrome troubleshooting from my post to Chrome community forums because now Edge 2.0 does the same exact thing.

For weeks google Chrome tabs are slow to load and the tab icon spins for seconds to many minutes.  The notice in the bottom left of my screen continues to state "resolving host"

I have Windows 10 version 1909 with latest patches, Chrome with latest patches

I have scanned for viruses and malware through Avast and Malwarebytes

I have followed directions to delete internet cache and cookies

I have removed all chrome extensions

I have tried opening chrome in incognito mode and it doesn't help

I have uninstalled/reinstalled google Chrome

I have disabled Malwarebytes and Avast

I have Comcast internet and DNS is hard coded into the router and can't be changed

I've tried networking troubleshooting steps from a Microsoft support site:

netsh winsock reset, netsh int ip reset, ipconfig /release /renew /flushdns

I've tried running windows network troubleshooter wizard - result "troubleshooter couldn't identify the problem"

I disabled IPV6 in network properties.  This was a solution for many with the same resolving host complaint in other discussions

There are 2 other pcs with the same windows 10/chrome setup in the household without the same issue.  Its a little slow but not unbearably slow

Often the page will load and the tab icon will spin and the resolving host message will happen for 3 or more minutes. 

I was fed up with Chrome so I thought I'd upgrade and try the new Edge 2.0, at first the new Edge 2.0 seemed to not have this "resolving host" and I was 

convinced I had a new favorite browser.  The honeymoon was soon over and while I found I really like Edge 2.0 the resolving host is just as bad.

EDIT: I installed Firefox and it does not have the same "resolving host" issue as Edge 2.0 and Chrome.  My chrome and Edge tabs can now sit and spin for many minutes or sometimes never stopped spinning. 

what can be done now?  I can open my own discussion if it needs to be. Thank you  I'd like to get back to Chrome or Edge 2.0 I really don't care at this point
