Edge update triggers “specific startup page” bug

Posted on May 29, 2021 at 12:10 CDT by Susan Bradley • Comment in the Forums

Over on Born’s Tech and Windows World – hopefully this is a temporary bug and not an intended feature – but if you set specific tabs to open in Edge after the recent update the settings are ignored. Appears you can set it with group policy (ugh) and it works if Bing is your search engine (ugh again).

I’m still a Pollyanna and willing to believe this is a bug not an intended “feature”.

edit – and yes it was a bug. Now fixed.
