Select Extensions.

Disable or remove any extensions you suspect may be causing the issue by toggling off or selecting Remove.

4. Reset Settings to Default

If the browser is still not working as expected, you can reset Edge to its default settings.

Open Settings by clicking the three dots in the top-right corner.

Go to Reset settings > Restore settings to their default values.

Click Reset.

5. Run the Microsoft Edge Troubleshooter

Open Settings and go to Update & Security.

Follow the prompts to fix any issues related to Edge.

6. Reinstall Microsoft Edge

If nothing else works, you might need to reinstall Edge.

Uninstall Edge: Go to Settings > Apps > Apps & features and find Microsoft Edge. Click it and choose Uninstall.

Reinstall Edge: Visit the Microsoft Edge website and download the latest version of the browser.

7. Check for System Updates

Ensure that your operating system is up-to-date, as updates often fix browser-related issues.

After following these steps, Microsoft Edge should be working properly again. If problems persist, there could be an issue with your system configuration or a conflict with other software.
