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!

    I have done that. My home page is set for the page I want but windows 10 edge does not open to that page. It opens to MSN and then I can click the home button to go to the page it is set to open too. Maybe about 1 in a 100 times it will open to the set home page but opens 99 times to MSN.

    I do not respond well to being forced to upgrade or add if I do not have an issue with my system!

    Perhaps you should be looking for a different operating system, then. Please check the licence agreement you accepted when you first set Windows 10 up. You can find it by running winver and clicking on the link; the relevant part is §6.

    Edge has been part of Windows 10 since its release in 2015.

    The reason or reasons we update or upgrade IS NOT because of "having an 'issue' with one's system".

    Nor does the word "forced" belong in the conversation.

    There is no need to remove Edge if someone wants to use some other browser.

    Cheers,
