Just click the Show Top Sites or Shows News Feed options to the bottom of any startup on new tab page and Microsoft Edge is more than willing to oblige.Īnd yes, the changes are permanent and show up even after restarting your browser.
If you miss your Top Sites and suggested news feed, turning them on is way easier than disabling them. On the Customize screen, check the box next to Hide My News Feed, and then click Save. To do that, click the gear-shaped Customize icon to the top left-corner of the news feed on your startup page. Since the new tab settings don’t work for the startup page, you need to hide the news feed using a separate set of settings. While that sounds better, it’s actually not - the distracting news feed is straight up at your face right from the get-go, which somehow feels even worse. The startup page that Microsoft Edge shows at launch doesn’t display Top Sites, only suggested content. On the Customize screen that shows up subsequently, use the radio button next to A Blank Page to get rid of all unwanted elements within new tabs. The second method involves clicking the gear-shaped Customize icon that shows up above the Top Sites area after opening a new tab. Select A Blank Page to disable both Top Sites and the suggested news feed. Now, simply open the pull-down menu under Open New Tabs With. The first method involves opening the Edge menu - click those ‘three dots’ on the top-left corner - and then clicking Settings. While Microsoft Edge propagates its new tabs with a double-barrage of distractions, the browser is considerate enough to provide us with not one, but two ways to disable these annoyances. The latter is just a major nuisance, bombarding you incessantly with news feed from MSN - suggested articles also show up on the startup page, requiring a slightly different procedure to get rid of it. The former provides a list of sites that come pre-installed by default, with frequently visited sites shown subsequently after using the browser for a while.
New tabs feature both Top Sites and suggested news articles, both of which are highly distracting. If you hate these distractions, let’s see how you can do that as well! Removing Top Sites and News Feed I found out that removing my list of Top Sites and suggested news feed permanently is more than possible. And thanks to that, I often find myself flicking through cat pics on Instagram or reading what Donald Trump was up to instead of getting some work done.
