Why is the Bing search engine not working properly with Microsoft Edge?

Since before the latest update to Windows 11, I have been having issues with Bing in Edge.

When I open Edge (Bing is my default Search Engine) I will get "Hmmm... can't reach this page" for Bing.com. Or, if I open a new tab and click the homepage button I will get the same results. Hitting "Refresh" doesn't always fix the issue. It doesn't happen every time, but it is consistent. However, I can open a different website (say Yahoo.com) and it opens immediately.

I also have issues with Bing being excessively slow when doing searches, or it will time out.

Since the latest Windows 11 update, Bing has gotten worse when used with Edge. It started last night, when I opened Edge or opened a new tab and selected homepage the Bing Search page was "gray" with no image and just the search bar. The same thing happened today. I can open Bing in Google Chrome and Mozilla Firefox and not have any issues.

And if I do an image search in Bing using Edge the images are small. I can open Bing in Google Chrome and Mozilla Firefox and not have any issues.

Your assistance with addressing this issue would be greatly appreciated.

Also, I am unable to uninstall/repair Microsoft Edge. Windows 11 won't let me.

    how come my issues with Microsoft edge and BING only started with the latest auto download from Microsoft is their a problem with it or has a mistake been made with the latest down load that's sent through , had this problem for over a week and according to my diagnostic everything is fine no problem except Bing has locked me out with every attempt to access it.

    Why do you make it so hard to contact you when theirs a problem , and why so many hoops to jump through to get to the right place for answers

    Thank you! I only experience the problem at one particular site, so I'll see if turning off my AdGuard VPN works.
