Improving performance and responsiveness of Edge on Windows 10
This browser is no longer supported.
Upgrade to Microsoft Edge to take advantage of the latest features, security updates, and technical support.
Updated to new version of Edge a couple weeks ago and am looking for a way to 'downgrade' to the old version... or recommendations for a non-chromium based, secure browser.
Why? Because the 'Resolving Host' delay that Edge is now performing on just about EVERY web page is driving me nuts. Delays page loading by 2 - 10 seconds on EVERY PAGE. How is that better?
I've tried clearing Edge's cache, Windows cache, changing dns to 8.8.8.8/8.8.4.4 and to the two IP's specified by my ISP (in addition to relying on my router's handling of DNS), rebooting modem+router/PC. Nothing has helped.
Any other suggestions? Perhaps point me down a better path?

Thank you. I'm not running Malwarebytes but switching to Firefox has resolved the problem for now.
Bingo!
Toggling (to off) "Add Malwarebytes option to windows explore" in Malwarebytes solved the problem on my work PC!!!
Thank you!
I just hope it has the same effect on my home PC tonight.
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.
