Like you, I had no desire to see the news feed upon startup OR when I open a new tab.

First, navigate to Edge's settings using the three dots on the upper right hand side of the window

Next, navigate to "Start, home, and new tabs"

In the "Start, home, and new tabs" section, I personally have it set to a couple sites/tools I use regularly for work, but you can set it to "Open the new tab page" which I'll get to below.

Edge handles new tabs separately and you are required to "personalize" the new tab layout. To do this, while still on the "Start, home, and new tabs" settings page, scroll down to "New tab page" then click "Customize"

Now, on the top right, click the cog icon and select "Custom"

Here, you can remove all "features" and content

Now, your new tabs should open up to something that resembles this, and if you set your startup page to "Open the new tab page" it should show this upon startup as well. :)

Hope this helps everyone!

    This issue needs to be fixed.

    It was working fine before.

    Edge ignores any option that is chosen and will always open up the default Microsoft Search page, regardless of what custom page you might have had.

    It also defaults to the address bar, instead of the search bar.

    If Edge launches with the New Tab Page, you can remove the MSN news feed from the page that opens:

    1. Open a new tab.
    2. Click on the gear icon in its top right-hand corner.
    3. Select Custom.
    4. Under Content at the bottom of the menu select Content off from the dropdown.

    Other responders have explained how to change the page that Edge opens on launch.

    I guess you must be still working on it because I still get the same page everyone else is trying to get rid of. I put EDGE on my computer because I was hoping it would be better that Internet Explorer. Nope. Time to delete but hey, at least I tried.
