Open a specific page or pages broken since KB4023057 / KB5003173 (only works if you set Bing as the default search engine).....

Since installing KB4023057 / KB5003173 the Edge 'On start up' setting of 'Open a specific page or pages' no longer works.... Well I say it no longer works... It works if you set the default search engine to Bing, anything other than Bing and it only brings up the MSN news feed (as you would normally get when you open a new tab).

This is pretty annoying, and a big issue in my opinion (forcing people into using Bing, especially with the new nag windows that you cannot get rid of).....

    Just restored from image and updated, and yes looks like all resolved now (albeit seems to be no bump to Edge version - how are these fixes pushed exactly....?!)

    Thanks all for the input and help.

    Incidentally I just noticed my spell check was not working, and changed the below setting back to default. With this back to default it still worked OK and without any issues so that would be my recommendation as a better workaround/fix (disabling/restarting Edge then putting it back to default and restarting)

    I'm getting a nag screen at the beginning of every Windows session now, telling me to reset to Bing. This does not look like a slip to me.
