Yesterday, I wanted to clean up my favorites in Edge (remove duplicates, remove obsolete links). In the midst of this, Edge closed without warning or error message. When I restarted Edge, it closed immediately. I could not select the three dots in the top right. It closed too quickly.
I found several possible solutions including tools in the Settings/Apps menu, other fixes involving removing and then reinstituting the %LocalAppData%\Packages\Microsoft.MicrosoftEdge_8wekyb3d8bbwe directory
None of these fixes worked.
When I restart Edge, it closes immediately.
How can I get it to work properly?
Troubleshooting browser crashes or performance issues on Windows 10
Locked Question. This question was migrated from the Microsoft Support Community. You can vote on whether it's helpful, but you can't add comments or replies or follow the question.
I did similar to this. I renamed the Edge folder and then did a repair as described in other messages.
In my system, when I open it, I can't open the "modify" or "uninstall" tabs.
What can I do to resolve this issue?
I imagine it's the same fix, but since it's a Chromebook, I don't know the location of the User Data folder for Edge. Kill (Force Stop) any processes with MS Edge running and find and delete the User Data folder for Edge. Then restart Edge and sync your MS and Google accounts.
I open it on Chromebook and then it immediately crashes. Nothing works.
Try my fix I posted earlier in this thread.
