Troubleshooting website display or functionality issues in Edge on Windows 11
This browser is no longer supported.
Upgrade to Microsoft Edge to take advantage of the latest features, security updates, and technical support.
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.
Microsoft Edge
I also have issues with Bing being excessively slow when doing searches, or it will time out.
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.

Agreed, same here.
I just wanted to chime in with you that first of all my being just started about 3 weeks ago where the homepage has everything there the little news things down to the bottom but when I click on the news story it goes to the results page and it has the you know Microsoft rewards and my name and all that written up top but the search part there's nothing written there it's just White but they've also done something you're still getting points but they're doing it really weird now I think they're trying to stop us when I do it on my phone I always do images it is look at those pictures I get points but the first three image search they don't show up as getting points but on the third one you get 15 points and some searches you don't get points so I always do more searches than necessary to get the right points and they don't show up correctly anymore but they're still there I'm sorry this is lengthy because I talked this text
I agree. I noticed I can only get points for 4 searches per every 30 minutes and sometimes an hour later. I don't get any on the cellphone anymore using Bing or Edge. If they are ending this they should at least announce that they are. If they're putting time restraints for the searches, that too should be announced. That lame excuse about using bots to get points is truly ridiculous sense there's a maximum total amount of points per search one can get per day. Frankly, I have no idea how a bot works, let alone cheat to gain points. But, getting a straight answer from support is entirely useless!

I am sorry that you are also experiencing these issues. Numerous people are really frustrated with these issues. I'm thinking maybe we should start a petition to bring attention to these issues. Not sure what else to do. I have contacted support 9 times without ever obtaining any resolution.

It appears that numerous people are experiencing this and are doing numerous searches with few if any points in return. Overall, they appear to have changed the rules and have made it very difficult to make points in almost every way. Clearly they have changed the rules without letting us know. In addition, since they started hyping AI other programs have struggled to work, and many are not getting help to resolve any issues through Microsoft support. Your problems are very similar to what others are having. Microsoft support appears to be non-existent. I am sorry you are also dealing with this issue. It appears that Microsoft's image is toast at this point.
