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!

    Get rid of all old EDGE shortcuts and build new ones on Start or Task bars. It appears Edge shortcuts are no longer allowed on the desktop. Using old shortcuts don't seem to follow settings.

    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.

    Hello,

    Thank you for the help.

    The Version and Build of Windows 10 installed on the PC: version 20H2 (OS Build 19042.985)

    The version of Edge installed on the PC: Version 90.0.818.66 (Official build) (64-bit)

    I followed the steps and added the URL.
